Omar Rodríguez-López
Doorman’s Placebo
[Verse 1]
Chances are you've heard this
But your headphones mute your equilibrium
The mattress hit, the mistress fooled
But nothing ever felt this good

[Pre-Chorus]
Wake you up and shake you
But your motor skills still speak in slurs

[Chorus]
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Court jester, don't kill the humour

[Verse 2]
Chances are you've cursed this
The volume of the speakers must be proud
Don't change your tune
A princess' work is never done
In the bed and breakfast beck and call

[Pre-Chorus]
Wake you up and shake you
But your motor skills still speak in slurs

[Chorus 2]
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Eeyore, chase your own
Eeyore, chase your own
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Court jester, don't kill the humour
[Bridge x2]
Brown shirt, Italian cut
Goose step and call our bluff
(Will your ears ring the tetinitus chorus goes
Will the decibels work as bifocals)

[Verse 3]
Chances are you've heard this
Chances are you've cursed this again
Don't change your tune
In hearing tests again

[Chorus 2]
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Court jester, don't kill the humour
Eeyore, chase your own
Eeyore, chase your own
Court jester, don't kill the humour

[Bridge x2]
Brown shirt, Italian cut
Goose step and call our bluff
(Will your ears ring the tetinitus chorus goes
Will the decibels work as bifocals)

[Bridge 3]
Brown shirt, Italian cut
Goose step and call our bluff
Brown shirt, Italian cut
Goose step and call our bluff
[Outro]
Chances are you've heard this
Chances are you've cursed this again
