lyrics

What is left here to believe in,
when magic doubts its own name?
Contemporary alchemies replaced the unexplained.

Tell ourselves that we still see
with roses in our eyes…
And conjure up excuses while we wait in line.

Bewitch our lives again,
pray to the god of nine to five
and then, pray further to the god of content.
Spellbind our modern hearts.

Take my voice and my pride
take all that I have left, cos I’ve
got no voice and no pride,
just the hole that magic left.
Take my voice and my pride
take all that I have left, when I’ve
got no voice and no pride,
I’ll have magic back again.

Take the trees and brew possibilities with another paper potion
Imbue the days with what your spellbooks say, and conjure things to speak devotions
But forget the proles as disillusion grows that the magic words you sell us
are less than those we once had, now we know that the money made the magic go.

There’s magic in your hands
There’s money failing that.
There’s magic in your hands
There’s money failing that.

Save money if you can.
Save money if you can.
Save life if you can.
Save money failing that.
