For Our Elegant Caste

Of Montreal · Skeletal Lamping (Dig) [2008]

We can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways



Georgie said romantic love is flat [Georgie said that]

only for people with no real ambition

in their lives

no lives



But oh, but list Christie disagrees

she sees into the core of my poor machine

[tell me what she sees]

frightened, cornered gemini tactics and

attempts to crack the party code

and there's one more thing



We can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways



Our bodies became what has been him so really turned off

became a freaky permutation

something like voltron

then I was wrapped in discourse with the magazine reader

the mutual conclusion was I'm not worth knowing because I'm probably dead

so I'm exposed but no solution



la la la la la la

la la la la la la



We can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should know I take it both ways

we can do it softcore if you want, but you should that I go both ways



Ooh

la la la la la..
