dilettante

She's drifting with nothing to do

With dilettante steps, she's quick to accept

The weather and times turning screw

The low life dealers with their bad designs

And the dilettantes with their open minds

You're out on the town, safe in the crowd

And had he successively beaten back the rising tide

Of idiots, dilettantes, and fools

On his watch while he was alive

Like a simple tune

But no dilettante, filigree fancy

Beats the plastic you

Sixty tents full of dysentery, death

Dying breaths and dilettantes and deserters in the distance

Congress, I beg of you, justify your existence

But school's out, join the crowd

We've got it all, the dilettante

Not ignorant, our honey hunt

♪

I'm a paranoid, sycophant, masochistic dilettante

Narcissistic elephant in the room

Can you remember a time when this city was

A great place for architects and dilettantes

A nice place for midwives and crossing guards

My mind goes creaking down the wall

Slow down, dilettante

So I can limp beside you

Do you want to expand your parameters

Or play museums like some dilettante

I fired him on the spot, he got red and he called me a rat
