jarvis cocker : I will kill again

“whooot?”

i will kill again – jarvis cocker

this popped on in my playlist and had to point out how much i love this guy. brilliant lyrics, with that signature jarvis cynicism and wit. hes my current leonard cohen – just love this guy. lyrics to the track below…
build yourself a castle (definitely my plan)
keep your family safe from harm
get into classical music (i’m already there)
raise rabbits on a farm (hmmm!)

log on in the night time
drink a half-bottle of wine (i’m there)

buy a couple of records (i have 100s – but this is a jab clearly to the brooklyn hipsters)
look at naked girls from time to time (done that)

and people tell me
what a real nice guy you are (he def doesn’t think of himself as one)
so come on, serenade them
on your acoustic guitar (again a possible jab, he def made me conscious as i do serenade on my acoustic)

and don’t believe me
if i claim to be your friend (see? not your sweet-y pie.)
cause given half the chance
i know that i will kill again
i will kill again

and wouldn’t it be nice
for all the world to live in peace? (jab at head-in-the-cloud hippies)

and no-one gets ill or ever dies
or dies of boredom at the very least (my favorite line in this track)
