Clown Blood/Orpheus’ Bobbing Head Songtext
von Los Campesinos!

Entry of the Gladiators′ tinnitus plays in my skull
Climb the Anhedonian Mountains just to circle the plughole
It's with regret I am succumbing to nostalgia
Been thinking ′bout you on that Lanzarote lounger

God only knows why, she's worrying, worrying about me
God only knows I am scurriously making this about me
It's not as if I want her to, I want for nothing
Each evening, morning, afternoon, I want for nothing

Saw your Bundesliga boy in A&E
Blues and twos from Leisure Leagues
My bildungsroman reads
You cannot call whitewash a rivalry
Drown him in a deep dish pizza
Kiss the last breath from his cheeks

Gets the clown blood pumping
Way more bitter than the taste is
She fucks to cum, I drink to be drunk, and both of us are wasted


Can we all calm the fuck down?
Parasocial puppet master
Every sucker in between
Sacrificial muppet pastor
To a thousand needy teens
My voice moved Hades so he extinguished the fire
I′m who they mean when they proclaim the boy′s a lyre

God only knows why, she's worrying, worrying about me
God only knows I am scurrilously making this about me
It′s not as if I want her to, I want for nothing
Each evening, morning, afternoon, I want for nothing

Orpheus' head bobs in the ocean
I admit it takes one to know one
Orpheus′ head bobs in the ocean
And another one
And another one
And another one
And another one
And another one
