about

NB. With reference to King Rat’s Lament: a ‘Cant’ is a whining beggar.
If you were wondering!
Chin chin.

lyrics

you say that you love him
and adore all the things that he does
he leaves you feeling unusually fecund
or maybe drunk

he’ll tantalise you with glimpses
of a life full of blushes and thrust
but see through that shallow vain front
and there’s a cant

he’s a cant
a fecking cant
see through that shallow vain front
‘cause he’s a cant

he may offer you stories
of tempting interspecies conjunct
but decipher his lexiconical stunts
and the attractions defunct

he’s a cant …etc

still you say you won’t leave him
he’ll come back ‘cause your life’s on a cusp
but really?
now let’s be blunt
he’s a cant

he’s a cant …etc
