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
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
