Sound and vision is a privilege Trade your faces, alter the images I want to keep it in tradition But often struggle to be so original I was a regal child But not enough to make the news A self-importance born From some elaborate ruse Sound and vision is a privilege Trade your faces, alter the images (Alter the images, just alter the images) I want to keep it in tradition But often struggle to be so original (Alter the images, just alter the images) Do we try? Do they try? Too hard. Twenty-six calendar movements Into the blank position Oh to be "avant-guarded" With glorious indifference If sound and vision is a privilege All your truths are better inhibited (Alter the images, just alter the images) I want to keep it in in tradition But authenticity is primitive (Alter the images, just alter the images) Do we try? Do they try? Too hard. Yeah you try, yeah you try, too hard.
