Verse
I once impersonated a shopwork dummy
The levi jean will always be stronger than an uzi
A dwarf takes his cockerel out on the cockfight
Falcons attack the pigeons in the west wing at night
Riderless horses on chomsky's camelot
Bruises on my hands from digging my nails out
A series of images against you and me
Trespass your torment if you are what you want to be
Riderless horses on chomsky's camelot
Bruises on my hands from digging my nails out
A series of images against you and me
Trespass your torment if you are what you want to be

The timing is key, as well as some snappy chord changes during the chorus to make
it work acoustically. being able to sing loudly in a register as high as james
dean bradfield also helps.
best of luck
