Marillion - Be Hard on Yourself (II) Lust for Luxury Lyrics

Don’t talk to me of need
Don’t talk to me of want
Don’t talk to me of dreams
The world has seen enough impatient bags of blood
Don’t talk to me of speed
Acceleration never did you any good

The monkey wants a new toy
And that’s all that it knows
Something to pull the sheep across the field

The only way forward is to fall over
Or you can learn to be hard on yourself

The monkey wants a new toy
And that’s all that it knows
The monkey wants a new toy
And that’s all that it knows

Cause of death: Lust for luxury
Cause of death: Lust for luxury
Cause of death: Consumption
