The Valley of Peaceful Fear

from Hotel Messerschmitt by BAAN

/

lyrics

[There’s just some things you’ve gotta do for yourself]
[I think it’s really important]
[Save yourself]

I got the salmonella
I got the fridgidella
I got the Sam and Ella

I got the frickadella
I got the Manadella
I got the fungadella

Why does the cheese remain?
Where do they get those names?
All I can see from here
The valley of peaceful fear

Why do you complicate
Everything that you hate?
What is beyond the last gate?

How did we get to this sorry looking place?
What is that look you keep sticking to your face?
Why do you speak with such lack of honest grace?

It’s a God-damned lie
You can see the surprise
In a dead man’s eyes

He tells no tales
No tears and veils
Spirit flutters and quails

Now I’m a big ch-ch-ch-ch-ch- cheese
You’re down on your na-na-na-na-na- knees
I laugh while you fr-fr-fr-fr-fr- freeze

You’ll never get anywhere looking like that
You were dragged up by the worst kinda cat
You’re looking so thin it’s the new kinda fat
