Artist: Darren Hayes Album: This Delicate Thing We've Made (2007) Title: Waking The Monster
Lyrics Waking The MonsterThe Professor is building something extraordinary From the first signs, well I knew he would hide it from me Clang, clang rattle and buzz There's a helicopter blade and a bit of a truck
He's got no more quality time to be Going on adventures spending mornings on black key Using a ouija board Or finding hidden places that have never been sought I pray Origami, full of grace The professor is mad and he's working a feverish pace Diabolical, delicious things Something is bad and it's something within me
Do you know, do you know, what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta see what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta be something destructively daring, disasterly It's got the best of me
The Professor is building all kind of devilish devices One part with a singular bit of enlightenment Bang, crash glitter and bug There's a phonographic needle and a stereo-heart
He's got no plans to make an announcement No preliminary sketches, or advice to impart to me One ounce of jealousy Fifty-seven gallons juvenile delinquency
Super supremacy Gotta find the answer Gotta fashion a skeleton key Diabolical delicious deeds Something's bad and its shrouded in secrecy
Do you know, do you know, what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta see, what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta be something destructively daring, disasterly It's got the best of me
[Computerized/megaphone voice:] There are really few dimensions. Three; which we call the three planes of space. And a fourth: Time
The professor is building something extraordinary Behind bars and a door he won't open for me Kind words and a barrel of a gun Will make him come to grips Make him face up to what he's done
Do you know, do you know, what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta see, what is he building in there? Gotta know, gotta be something destructively daring, disasterly It's got the best of me |
