La Finestra di Fronte

Now there's something about you
That's so fucking fake
Not much the actress
More a dummy in place

They've worked so hard
 to give you resemblance of taste
but you move so last season
 in all the wrong make...up

Could you be...
This shallow of a human being?
 Could you be...
Just a shadow of a real meaning?

Sounds like a voice!
Smiles like a face!
Nothing beneath
but PR and Marketing

Sounds like a voice!
Smiles like a face!
A breathing mannequin
with dimensions so great.

First time I seen you
You was all a mess
All regrets

La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Now you have comfort
In sameness
Same as them

La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

 Here, look, see the audience
eyes wide, bright, and peeled.
Membranes of retinas
are discarded shields.

So ready to imitate
such rotting dead life.
They only need a push
 to throw away their desires.

Could you be...
So gullible a group of beings?

Could you be...
So clueless to a shred of meaning?

Sounds like a voice!
Smiles like a face!
Patterns, formulae
to set hearts aflame.

 Sounds like a voice!
Smiles like a face!
An edge-of-the-seat grip
on a sweet nothing.

Art is all glamour
And shamelessness
Arrogance
 
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Posture for the camera
You're magnificent
Maleficent

La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
 Now, who can give blame
 for the whoring of self?
The tried and the true,
slides easy from the shelf.

 Don't puncture me too deeply.
Don't linger in my head.
Get in and get out,
I promise to be good and entertained.

 Could you be...just trying to get by?

 Da DAdaDAdaDAda DA da DA da DAda

Sounds like a ruse...to set the right mood

Da DAdaDAdaDAda DA da DA da DAda

Suspend disbelief...PR, marketing

 Da DAdaDAdaDAda DAda DA DAdaDAda

 Too hard, too risky...for real meaning

 Da DAdaDAdaDAda DAda DA DAda DA da
