Immortals - Eugene McGuinness

Do not adjust your TV sets

What you’re about to see is a live broadcast

With a warning for whom it conserns

We have scenes some viewers

May find disturbing

You can run from your impending doom

But we’re all immortal

You’re so stunned from our bolts from the blue

But we’re all immortal

Where humdrum’s slum-bums are down and out

Down where you couldn’t turn

A fucking sweet in your mouth

We’ll paraglide across this dystopian junkyard

Press the fast forward over all the boring parts

You can run from your impending doom

But we’re all immortal

You’re so stunned from our bolts from the blue

But we’re all immortal

Call me hollow

Call me Apollo

Call me what you like

Re-stitch the scars, too much too late

Too little too early

Say hello to the birdie and wait

For the flash, later or sooner comes

Saturday, Saturday somersaulting up to the-

Glory hunters fearful that they’ll lose

But we’re all immortal

So come rejoice and start anew

We’re all immortal

Call me hollow

Call me Apollo

Call me what you like

Call me shallow

Fire your poison arrows

But I’m alright
