Receptacle For The Respectable

It took a long time for me to get over
Your incredible ways
And now I'm minded to wipe out the memory
Of the way you behaved

You're a receptacle
[It took some time for me to discover]
For the respectable
[It took some time to get over]

I took some time out to study your actions
Of how you painted towns red
And if my worse fears came to fruition
I'm sure you'd leave us all dead

I was so gullible
But now I'm cynical

We're all susceptible
To the Incredible

Tell me, tell me, tell me again
'Cause it's very inane
Are you pleased to see me suffer ever?

Tell me, tell me, explain again,
'Cause it's very inane
Are you pleased to see me suffer ever?

[repeat chorus]

Welcome as a storm cloud
In the late December gloom
Subtle as a nail bomb in the head
You came to me in peace
And left me in pieces.
