Know What It Means Lyrics

Tiger Lillies Know What It Means

Just for effect the angel of death asks you to confess
your dreams
I’m prepared to bet you wouldn’t expect or even know what
they mean
They’ll burn in the fire all your desires when you emerge
you will be clean
So you contrive all the time you’re alive to effect that
you know what it means
You know what it means you effect that you know what it
means
Is there good is there bad or are you just mad do you
have a card to redeem
You smile and you joke at desire you poke is there anyone
left now to dream
The gambler bets the old men forget and nobody knows what
it means
Is there good or bad or are you just mad do you have a
card to redeem
At your funeral dirge you’ll be free to expurge that it
really didn’t mean a thing
The gambler bets the old men forget and nobody knows what
it means
