Semantics Got Me Caned Lyrics & Chords By Heligoland

I've seen these conjurers on tv
I thought "How did he do that?"
The rabbit out the hat

Now you're this smirking temporal weight
You say "Let's be clear of that"
Whilst slipping out the back
Persued by the hat
Your drink, your voice a trap

Everybody knows
You're oily operators
You bring it on like Darcy Bussell
Truth and lies seem the same
Semantics got me caned
Semantics got me caned

Unfit of mind but still aware
Of the consequence of that
Your lexicon of crap
It eats away the largest share
Then kills the edges back
Then you'll be on the rack
You can't deflect the flack
Abandoned by the clack

Everybody knows
We won't be obligated
Take your monkey and your parrot
Throw doubt out from the train
Semantics got me caned
Semantics got me caned

Everybody knows
We won't be obligated
Say goodbye to Aristotle
Throw doubt out from the train
Semantics got me caned
Semantics got me caned
