Tilt - Kowtow lyrics

Explain away the obvious in a single breath Your eyes betray your countenance they're signaling distress Your wagging speech is withering and clothed beyond reproach Shaming and ambiguous the fabric of your coat Initial observation yields a striking silhouette A close examination shows the cut of avarice Flimsy and inaccurate the coarseness of the weave A blanket condemnation draped upon a heartless sleeve I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you No I don't know your etiquette I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you And even though I'm desperate I won't kowtow to you Your estate is brazen you are held within your will The home that you have chosen owns a stultifying chill Foundation is eroding and the ground is undermined For all your underpinning you keep slipping down the side Amazing cast of characters like busy little bees They come to prop you back up but they know you're hard to please How it must consume you all you must ingest To generate the fuel to maintain your edifice I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you No I don't know your etiquette I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you And even though I'm desperate I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you No I don't know your etiquette I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you And even though I'm desperate I won't kowtow I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you No I don't know your etiquette I won't kowtow to you I may be hungry I may be lonely But not for you And even though I'm desperate I won't kowtow to you
