The Aristocratic Swells

Beulah

And hey "Mr. For Real," sir,

we're in it for fun

and have you heard the news, sir?

We're in it for free



And with a kiss, yeah, you'd be so sure,

we'll put a laughtrack on for you, dear,

a million and one excuses

the homes are full of spies



We're all over waiting

we're in it for fame

and hey, slow coronation,

repeat the same themes



Devil takes a bite out of this here land

every hour on the hour

the good kind of suicide, dear,

the adjectives they...



...pall next to pageants

for those who never place

for those who come in second

a mistress all your life



Our lullabies will never move you to tears

The jokes'll bounce right off you



All next to pageants

for those who never place

for those who come in second

a mistress all your life



Our lullabies will never move you to tears

The jokes'll bounce right off you

like dirty words

and anecdotes that we share 've

been told before

our destination's still unknown
