Don't be so clever
About what you must hide
They said that I should warn you that I sell lies
A look over the shoulder
A neck that's made of rubber
A look over the shoulder
The lie you never sold
'Cause you can't turn your back
On the empire's new clothes
The muse is not a mission
The muse just is
They say that nothing comes close to it
Sorrow pulls the rope of grief out of the well
The bucket and the grail arе empty as well
The musе is not a mission
The muse just is
They say that nothing comes close to it
Tied up in the basement
Covered in furs
Draped in every song inspired by her
Said, don't be so clever
I said, don't be so clever
Don't be so clever
Don't, don't
Don't, don't
