Cool Wave Magnolia Songtext
von Mike TV

This isn′t quite what you thought it would be
A future bright, now it's Pampers and pee
A nine to nine, commuting to-and-fro
You used to write your brand of dark fantasy
But now you′re stuck in a rut and nightly folding your suit and tie
Wondering why, where did the time go
Within the cool wave magnolia
Torpor starts to dictate where you'll go
Lackadaisical ennui, in the heart of bourgeoisie
You've coined the phrase "I′ve gone sunshine desserts"
And it′s wearing thin
You're holding tight, to meaningless accidie
No end in sight, a pointless master′s degree That you refuse to execute with great aplomb
You could recite all Carroll's Jabbawocky
But now imaginative and fun have all gone away
To hide the well has dried up, sloth in a trough
Within the cool wave magnolia
Torpor starts to dictate where you′ll go
Lackadaisical ennui, in the heart of bourgeoisie
You've coined the phrase "I′ve gone sunshine desserts"
And it's wearing thin
Your life was vinyl from Tom Petty to The Skids
But now it's Night Garden and Tweenies with the kids
You sit and wonder, "Oh how did it come to this?"
I guess you′re just another monkey, monkey, monqué


Within the cool wave magnolia
Torpor starts to dictate where you′ll go
Lackadaisical ennui, in the heart of bourgeoisie
You've coined the phrase "I′ve gone sunshine desserts"
And it's wearing thin
Oh existential Malady and it′s wearing thin
Oh in a catchy melody and it's wearing thin
Oh existential Malady and it′s wearing thin
And it's wearing thin
