O(f)f Course

freaks and fuck ups

that’s what we’re about

 

calculations wrong

everybody’s gone

 

just when

the night comes on

 

dream of apartments

cities yet bombed

 

what’s disappearing

you fear It’s now

 

promised

it’d be calm

 

promised

dignity

 

but even now

how fitting

 

it’s a last thing

to get wrong
