PEOPLE NEED PRELUDES
Words: Tomi Toth

A slap in my face. it's such a disgrace.
Funny thing is, my cheek doesn't feel the pain I imagined it would feel
- I ought to feel - when watching all those movies and shows on tv.
Well I guess there’s a difference between feeling and FEELING,
getting that hit in anyway…
So, the chick gets just this trifling tease, while the Ego instead,
uh, that’s where the pain gets real.
Oh, So real! It hurts! Please pal, please world, let me step on that pedestal again.
Well you became a pain in my ass some time ago.
And I’ve tried to speak out to you, tried to inform that there’s
something sick about the things you do and say lately, pal.
But no, you just said no, you showed no, you expressed no
in any way in all the ways, but directly uttering: No!
No, there will be no bargaining, no argumentation, no, no, no!
I need a prelude, need tons of preludes.
I want something that preludes the word,
I demand some preludes before the broken nose.
That’s how we were taught.
That’s how I was taught.
People want preludes, we all need preludes, right?
It’s right to, isn’t it? Yeah!
It’s ok not to feel the word, it’s right not hear the sense…
People want preludes, we all need preludes, right?
It’s right to, isn’t it? Yeah, that’s Right!
The prelude is a glass before and all around me
it’s a fence for us weak.
That’s how we were taught.
Gimme a prelude, gimme a postlude, gimme an interlude,
anything but the thing itself.
‘Cause you see, the mind is subtitle with the timing gone late
and a mind is the only thing we’re willing to use.
