Amen from Catharsis by Becky Brine

Amen

The world is like a film without the amen
You got your James Bond madmen and your lucrative Admen
Your lipstick ladies. Power suits
Too much coffee and a lot of blurred roots

Got fuzzy focus due to too much information
Too much waiting at a travelling station
Nothing is beautiful for too long
Every thing’s disposable blink and it’s gone

Oh right way, wrong way, easy to despise
The more they’re sure they know they’re right.
The less they compromise

Men wax themselves then wax lyrical
200 hundred Cinderella’s turn up at every ball
Fat lipped smiles with no expression
Everybodies got designer depression

Mother Nature got the sack, Father Time won’t play ball
Half the worlds too short and the rest are too darn tall
Stretched out faces under neon skies
Half the world is starving, the rest ate all the pies

My way. Your way. Us and them.
We’re having so much fun tonight
Lets do it all again
