Tuxedomoon - Jinx

Desire (1981) Lyrics: Why all the flags at half mast Why the murders the rage Where the retainers of passion Left from a sensible age To wipe the wretched history from this page Why the people so bloated What making cancerous sin Where the godmerging shamans To make new sense out of this din To make beast calming music out of this din Why all the present confusion, When will the answering cry come? We’ll be able to hear it, So busy dying to die? How is it we live dying to die? Don’t disrespect your parents Rather calm their panic Curb their distemper Don’t tamper with their rot No diaper no rash Put out the trash It’s a jinx it’s a jinx... Tuxedomoon is an experimental post-punk/New Wave group formed in San Francisco, California, consisting of core members Blaine L. Reininger, Steven Brown and Peter Principle.
