lyrics

Death is doing her dirty dance
With Sorrow's hand inside her pants
While Love and Greed
Play chess on Reason's carcass
Lust is seeking
From the corner
For Vanity who's
Swinging closer
Hand in hand
With Treason and Temptation

Faith is suffocating Hope
Sayin' "life ain't nothing but a joke [ha]
If you're not hand in hand with the messiah"
Amen brochure
Experience is standing trial
And head in hand confides in Trust
That Love can breed Disgust
There's no denial

Order!

Can you heal me
Help me stand
I can't seem to get it right
Can you hear me?
Hear me say it out loud

We're all cannibals!

Yeah we're all cannibals
We're vicious animals
We breach then desecrate
Yeah we're insolvable
You succulent villain

It's aggravating
The pain that steals
The fix we seek as we swallow
Self immolation's our
Beaujolais
Delectable (Delectable)
Hunger always floats
But you're still sinking

Let your sore bones
Rest in the fire
Famine cheating
Your sense away
But we're all cannibals
Drops in the rain
Grapes off the (g)rapevine
Flesh and sin

Yeah we're all cannibals
Yeah we're all cannibals
You wonder why you chase love
Then spice it sick and slain yeah
You'll bite the hand
That strums your heart strings
Drink the sorrow
In your veins
You've built the walls
That keep you in here
Release in every bite
And feast in every vice in yourself

Paul Bidault image

Paul Bidault Paris, France

Attempts to categorize Paul Bidault (pron Bid-Oh)unfailingly lead to inventive descriptions such as” Cab Calloway meets Tom Waits in a Fellini film” or “this is what would happen if Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave and Tom Waits crashed a day of the dead party”. Bidault himself is an improbable brew; a Paris based anglophone Mexican armed with a brooding sonic palette that beats with a troubled heart. ... more
