10 Love Blindfold
Bb
V1
Remember days of long ago It came over the radio Now you forget that certain song You say, "How does it go?" Wanted to be one falling in love I wanted to be her heart's gospel Eventually she'd give it up Stop singing my high praises CH Only a fool would take it off this love blindfold. You little fool don't take it off and walk alone out in the cold V2 When you read that god was dead You looked again and cocked your head An angry eyebrow slowly crows and kills the son and the holy ghost I always thought he was my friend and he would save me in the end No more love unconditional No one looking out for my lost soul. <CH> BR We can be happy even so (eating crow) Even if god's not god (seeing that) We can be happy Yes I know it's cruel (we're screwed) We're the fools who shook it off <CH> OUT There's no love unconditional There's no love for me now. But it's alright There's no love unconditional There's no one cheering for me now, for me now. © 2015 OneToMany Liner notes: This song is about a robot (vocoder part) who learns to love and then discovers the truth about human love - because people don't really like robots, or treat them that well. The human vocal in the chorus is his only human pal telling him not to take it off and be a fool like him. Yeah, it's a robot having an existential crisis. |
