The Brutalist - Momus

Days roll by like a tape machine

Splice this film together again

Splice this film as it crumbles away

Life in1979

What the hell is the role of the snake?

Dot dot dash language machine

You are an error living a life

Left left right the fire brigade

Where the hell is the cinematheque?

Play the music on the cassette

Luck is always yours to make

Stay the path lost in the mist

This bloody Mary never rewinds

Life in 1979

Paris 6 she wants to come

The mist grows old but the pain stays young

Rectangle on a celluloid path

Reconnect your telephone

You are far and suddenly near

Standing beside the intercom

Now that the wheels have come off the machine

What the hell is the role of the snake?

Of all the misfortunes that can exist

The worst is to love a brutalist

Modern Mathematics, the Stinky Toys

The Honeymoon Killers, the Border Boys

The mist grows old, as the pain sets in

Life in 1979

Of all the misfortunes that can exist

The worst is to love a brutalist
