Xmas With Lydia
I woke up this morning and I could already see you
Arranged in your body there and seated across me
I’m surprised at how unsurprising and
How cramped it feels in here
How cramped it feels
And when in Rome
I woke up this morning feeling chemically altered
A drycleaned outfit, dead and hung on the wall
What is the secret process? What is the secret?
The appearance of freshness
The appearance of
And when in Rome
Ohh another Xmas with Lydia
Always Xmas day
So anaesthatise me
Let no pain advise me
Tell me more about your ideas for a screenplay
You'd like to - you say - watch your parents decay
You tell me "no no Lydia's not my real name"
And when in Rome
See a million creatures trapped in your colosseum
You got the ancient mod-cons you got the lions now feed 'em
Blood flows and I suppose I know
What’s underneath this exquisite carapace
And when in Rome
A matching ritual for each individual
Here we sift, exchanging digital gifts
Pull me down into the yuletide
Are you a matchmaker or an arsonist's bride
And when in Rome
Ohh Lydia my dear
Ohh Lydia help me now
