Middle-Class Heroes - The Divine Comedy[00:00:00]

Hello [00:00:02]

What have we here [00:00:03]

A young lady [00:00:05]

To what do I owe this pleasant surprise [00:00:07]

My pretty one [00:00:10]

How may I be of service this dark and wintry night [00:00:12]

Ah I see [00:00:17]

You wish me to look into the future[00:00:19]

Your future [00:00:22]

After GCSEs A-levels university[00:00:25]

After your first badly paid job in advertising[00:00:31]

Okay my pretty just cross my palm with plastic [00:00:36]

And I'll see what I can do[00:00:41]

Wait [00:00:44]

The fog is lifting [00:00:45]

I see oriental paper globes[00:00:47]

Hanging like decomposing cocoons[00:00:53]

While exotic candles overload[00:01:00]

The dusty air with their stale perfume[00:01:06]

And I see lentils beans seaweed and rice[00:01:11]

In jars on the windowsill[00:01:17]

And it ain't hardly enough to feed the mice[00:01:24]

Running behind the lines of allergy pills[00:01:29]

All these things will come to pass[00:01:37]

When heroes of the middle class[00:01:42]

Face up to their responsibilities[00:01:48]

I see an Indian fertility God[00:01:59]

He's got thirty seven limbs to spare[00:02:06]

And tasteless tie-dyed tablecloths[00:02:12]

That double up as evening wear[00:02:17]

And I see naked bodies twist and turn[00:02:23]

On the futon of dreams fulfilled[00:02:29]

But their three-year-old kid seems unconcerned[00:02:35]

He'd rather swallow all those allergy pills[00:02:41]

All these things will come to pass[00:02:48]

When heroes of the middle class[00:02:54]

Face up today and responsibility[00:03:00]

I see unspeakable vulgarity[00:03:17]

Institutionalised mediocrity[00:03:22]

Infinite tragedy[00:03:25]

Rise up little souls[00:03:27]

Join the doomed army[00:03:29]

Fight the good fight[00:03:31]

Wage the unwinnable war[00:03:33]

Elegance against ignorance [00:03:35]

Difference against indifference [00:03:37]

Wit against sh*t [00:03:40]

My words fly up to heaven [00:03:42]

My thoughts remain below[00:03:48]

Words said without feeling never to heaven go[00:03:55]

Never to heaven go[00:04:06]

Oh never to heaven go[00:04:12]

Never to heaven go[00:04:18]

All these things will come to pass[00:04:42]

When heroes of the middle class[00:04:48]

Face up repent and pay the price[00:04:54]

For accidentally creating life[00:05:00]

An oversight for which they must atone[00:05:06]

And sacrifice their own[00:05:16]
