Testo The I.D. - Moloko

Testo della canzone The I.D. (Moloko), tratta dall'album I Am Not a Doctor

Mama don't you turn away
Just because I've gone astray
Out of the fire into the frying pan
This is the story of a sorry man
I have been known to deviate
Myself from the path that is set
But let us not forget about the man
Who decided to dedicate his life to the jet set
He is now just a shadow of his former self
And dark clouds hover overhead
The living dead move over
You see it goes like this
I can be a mover
I can be a shaker
Don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heartbreaker
The money maker
This will all be mine one day
I myself do not think that such a raw ambition
Is disposition to be a sin in itself though
Should we not forget about the mess
That his doubts have hit
Where now stands this meek and empty man
That once was a typhoon
Earthquaker, a phenomenon
Higher than the rest of us
'Cause he was steppin' on us
Steppin' over people
And this is how the story goes folks
I will go undefeated, I'll be protected
You think you're big time, I'll show you big time
Hollerin' and swallowin' air
Crawling in the pit of despair
Once he got his foot in the door
Well you know he was a fast stepper
A bad taste in the mouth kinda guy
When he fell over, always had a joke or two
But be careful, the joke could be on you
Did you ever hear the one about the id?
The ego? The super-ego?
The monumental man sat back to watch his automobile roll
He was a Lamborghini kinda guy
Got so high he would swear he had touched the sky
But the sky was the limit
He was calling, he was calling
Riddled by the immensities of life
Ladies of the night would call all hours of the day
Every day, all day
Calling for his mommy when the day was done
Yes, he was moving, he was shaking
So lonesome tonight
And his eyes belied his smile a while
Calling for his mommy but his mommy didn't come
I can be a mover
I can be a shaker
Don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heartbreaker
The money maker
This will all be mine one day
I will go undefeated, I'll be protected
You think you're big time, I'll show you big time
Hollerin' and swallowin' air
Crawling in the pit of despair
I can be a mover
I can be a shaker
Don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heartbreaker
The money maker
This will all be mine one day
I can be a mover
I can be a shaker
Don't you try to get in my way
I'm the heartbreaker
The money maker
This will all be mine one day
