The Lonely Artists' Federation
Welcome to the lonely artists' federation
Singing our empty souls across the nation
Hoping that you'll pity us
Hoping that you'll sleep with us
Hoping that you'll buy our art,
and we'll be rich,
and live in rapturous luxury.
But that future is elusive,
our greatness inconclusive,
so we paint our souls in black and blood
and sing our songs in sweat and mud.
We'd quit and settle down, in love,
if we could,
but we can't find like minded girls
with like minded inclination
to join the lonely artists' federation.
