almost rosey lyrics

Just a minute of your time, yes

I’ve been known to delude myself

so let me put those rose colored glasses to the test

Now, is this real enough for you?

'Cause blondes here don’t jump out of cakes

If that never impressed you much

come board this lunatic express



Just why do they say have a nice day, anyway?

We both know they wouldn’t mind

if I just curled up and died

Oh, let’s not give that one a try



Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

Raise those blinds

Chin up

A happy mask was never your best disguise

Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

In no time

You will feel almost fine

Almost rosey



Now some girls here will huddle with

no, not footballers that are rich

but will confide in small white sticks

he bats his, the virginian slim

then i tried once to comply with

an authority that would subsidize my wild side

but if this altar were sacrificed

Yes, you can laugh, a femme fatal

in a bride dress now married to

the effortlessness of the cracks

that lie now in between the facts



Just why do they say have a nice day, anyway?

We both know they wouldn’t mind

if I just curled up and died

Oh, let’s not give that one a try



Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

Raise those blinds

Chin up

A happy mask was never your best disguise

Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

In no time

You will feel almost fine

Almost rosey



And how about when Violet died

the cause still unidentified

She thought her love would be enough

but you can’t seduce seduction

Her tentacles of endless want

reached through my corridors

and tempt me to taste of her power

I sober with the witching hour

And when I hear of one more bomb, yes

we have all been robbed of song

and nightingales who throw their arms up

when is enough-enough?



Just why do they say have a nice day, anyway?

We both know they wouldn’t mind

if I just curled up and died

Oh, let’s not give that one a try



Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

Raise those blinds

Chin up

A happy mask was never your best disguise

Chin up

Put on a pair of these rosies

In no time

You will feel almost fine

Almost rosey
