Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Flaunts jewellery like there's no tomorrow
In pendant carries story of sorrow
Blubbers on about nights of meeting seals
Has not the willpower to distinguish fake from real
[Verse 2]
Sees hat being held outside the corner shop
Says, "I haven't but a fiver to toss on down the drain"
Proudly marches onwards, and upwards to the Hill
And pisses twenty of his money on a horse with no name
[Chorus]
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
[Verse 3]
Well, do you ever get the feeling that you're looking in a mirror
But with inspection see that this is no reflection
No, it's more an infection under skin, it's causing lesions
This anti-doppelgänger's mitts over your eyes with good reason
While following allegations yields nothing but goodwill
Makes a stark accusation and carries on until
Notes compared by outsiders show the same result
Tranquillise this escaped tiger and bring it to a halt
[Chorus]
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
[Verse 4]
Embraced this Richard Nixon with the highest adoration
This Piltdown man should sit down, man
It's leaked the blueprints to its plan
Man maketh self an obstacle to ricochet damnation
This Mr Clinton exhumes hints of lying 'bout their basic income
There never really was a march to William Hill
Until recently the thought of such would have me choking on my lunch
But now the plot has thickened like a sappy based adhesive
Have to admit, though makes me sick
Fabrications leave you drowned in shit
[Chorus]
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
Degenerate Inanimate
