Iambic Pentameter Songtext
von Townsend

I′ll cut my tongue out
I'll wait till sundown
So I can speak for one more day
If you can stand it
I′ll speak in iambic pentameter

Writing down old phrases
Never thought I'd say them
Bouncing between my walls they make my ears ring
I'll probably never make it
I should quit while I′m behind
Destroy what made me say those awful things


Downing medications
Placebic in their creation
I ask myself this question "Am I having fun?"
Time after time I have trusted
Machines that continue to rust it′s pathetic
But at least I admit it
Words are not action no more distractions I'll

Cut my tongue out
I′ll wait till sundown
So I can speak for one more day
If you can stand it
I'll speak in iambic pentameter
