Lyrics Gruff Rhys – Frontier Man

Text:

On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man
When they mistook you for beauty
They were eventually faced by a miserable clown

Still I sing my way to spaces
That modelling shouldn’t quest
When the dinner isn’t ready
I’m your uninvited guest

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man

When the artists motivation
Are the gigs that come from rage
The nightmare of existence
Are thrust into the stage

But compared to the totalitarian
Their win seems soft and clean
When the future isn’t broken
By a fence that we pool in

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man

(Frontier man, come in, your work is done)
Feels like I’ve just begun

(Frontier man, can’t you see what you’ve become?)
Just a monument of times gone wrong
(Frontier man, come ?)
Can’t see without my glasses on
(Frontier man, let’s sing a different song)
Wake me from my coma

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I’m your foremost frontier man
