Steve Kilbey - The Neverness Hoax lyrics

Have i told you 'bout the neverness hoax A vile trick perpetrated on you innocent folks Was it in the fall of '93 During the rise of the galaxy A tiny shift in our trajectory A little more substance to the unimaginary (and you smile) the neverness hoax The confederation was in disgrace They jettisoned their rubbish into inner space Sweet toxic love all over the place Cupid's agent off his face Have i told you 'bout the neverness hoax Religion to many, to others the bu*t of their jokes There came a disturbance in the indian sea Something in the depths, a monstrosity An invisible woman kept a file on me Trying to seduce my immediacy The mechanical royalties will never recover The pleasure back from her animal lover The futures slide back one after another And wouldn't you know it, it's the people that suffer From the neverness hoax
