Unusual - Typhoon

This brave new world

It’s gonna take some getting used to

The cretin’s lips are curled

He swings a wrecking ball around the court room

And I’d say, «Just wait it out»

But I’m afraid it’s just a desert beyond the sand dune

It’s unusual

Except now it happens all the time

Now the truth is immaterial

Every teller’s got an axe to grind

Get your pitchforks out

The crowd is coming and they’ve named you

You open up your mouth

You find your language it has escaped you

And it’s too bad

You’re gonna need it now

There’s no system left to save you, you

It’s unusual

Yeah I know I must be losing my mind

Yeah it’s cruel and unusual

Can’t tell the punishment apart from the crime

You’re running out of time

Why, gentle mother, must you wring your hands and weep?

Tide brings you a sword, sword will cut you free

Debt demands a tribute in the hour of our need

Blood be the river to wash the ledgers clean
