I was dreaming, you always are

I see the coins that were your eyes
My eyes shining like sapphires
I can't think, and I can't paint, I can't love!
And no one will, for money makes us up

Death to monetaries!
Death to monetaries!

I heard 'Shock of shocks' - shock of all shocks- like 'Pfft, yeah, what a shock. ' I like it.

james' singing can often be hard to decipher and the lyrics just read like a bunch of words sucked out of a dictionary anyway by some random computer programme - i guess that's why it's easy to confuse them.

Those luric sites are awful. Someone should do a stickied thread with a list of trusted Manics sites with the proper words.

haha good point. It says "revulsion" on the browser tab, but at the top of the lyrics it is repulsion
