13th Century Boy

13th Century Boy Lyrics

you don't live the way you should
you're not chaste or wise or good
oh no, when you're human
i wait for you my queen
i keep myself ready clean like my maker
against nature
i needn't worry about all the wars out there
the price of fish and all the ineffective hygiene
you are the reason why i've reached perfection
you are the reason why i try to tend this fertile void
i'm a 13th century boy
these are heroic times
so thumb your nose at years gone by
be hardened...we're a legend
now love keeps the country green
i know because i've seen the pictures
in this week's scriptures
all i know is that i feel you coming near
all you need know is that your prophatelector is waiting
you are the reason why i've reached perfection
you are the reason why i try to tend this fertile void
and i'm a 13th century boy
you are the reason why i live forever
you are the reason why i learned to love the void
oh i'm a 13th century boy
oh i'm a new gone ages boy
i'm a 13th century boy
