Song-writing challenge winning track.

lyrics

We’re the cure for your new punk waves
The age-old shore up new age graves
Sell elegance with white noises
Opinionated comeback poisons
Your Kaiser sends her ornaments
We stomp out all the malcontents
Stomp

Hide forever, what we did
I want to be this comeback kid
Her beat-up turbo 911
Never acquired this much fun
Kept in time she paid her rents
We’ll stomp out all her cruel moments
Stomp

She’s everybody’s failed muse
Oh, how to fill her empty shoes
When the muse has failed
And it’s never comin’ back
She took me to the higher places
Then left me to these human races
The muse has failed
It’s never comin’ back

Take my space and fill it up
Never say you’ve had enough
Emote iconics distilled, deterred
Drunk on lovers disinterred
We have heard it and we can’t take it
No-one gains cos no-one makes it
Stomp

She’s everybody’s failed muse
And cast aside one colour blues
When the muse has failed
And it’s never comin’ back
Stomp

“Erato, Polyhymnia, Terpsichore, Urania
Euterpe, Calliope, Melpomene, Clio, Thalia”

She’s everybody’s failed muse
You never filled my front page news
When this muse has failed
And it’s never comin’ back
She’s everybody’s failed muse
Oh, cast aside those empty shoes
When the muse has failed
And she’s never, heaven, ever comin’ back
