Church, The - Disenchanted Lyrics
Well look at you,
Hands full of money you always wanted to have
Saying sweet life is a downright drag
Down to the very last seed in the bag
As if it's never gonna end
Summer slipped under in this neighborhood
I'd like to hold onto you if I could
But now I'm gonna have to let you go for good
My disenchanted friend
They say that character you play is rising fast
So you get drunk, make a half second jump
And experience it as the past
But this is it, the closer you get
The deeper you go, the tighter the net looks to me
Do you enjoy the view
They say it makes you dizzy your first time up there
Till you get used to breathing rarefied air
Auditioning for the part of Mr. Despair
Well I know him personally
And this hotel's a zoo
You gotta be some creature to get a room in here
You can live like a king on a throne of tears
It's a mighty long way from the innocent years
And it waits inevitably
And I'm asking you
If you think that success is its own reward
Now then go and see what your persistence has scored
The voice is a'calling and it can't be ignored
You might be underground but you're overinsured
You used to be unknown now you're mapped and explored
You like to be untouched now you're handled and pawed
And it's never gonna end

LOS MAS GRANDES
that drumming!!!!!!!! Richard Ploog!!! :)
Bought this album when it first came out in 1986. Very rare for an album to have every song on it great! This one does.
I love the 12-string guitar sound, it has an old school feel to it.
Can't believe these guys have not been inducted into the R&R Hall Of Fame...
R&R HOF is a joke, to say the least.
Michael Tully True! But The Church need have the highest recognition.
I feel The Church to be far too esoteric for so dubious an honor.
Oh boy....... the church.......
one ov my fav Church songs ever! :)
Just Amazing music, one of my favourite bands
Dylanesque lyrics, true class
23 year old Church/Kilbey fanatic from the UK reporting for duty, good sir!
My favourite Steve lyric - perfectly articulated my time at university as I was living it. Like Led Zeppelin, each of the four members is essential to the sound - especially with Ploogy in the line-up.
Long live Steven John Kilbey, long live The Church!
J
