Dead Man Ray - Authentic Lyrics

We’ll never walk a dead end line
Or a bribed or a hyped or a limed one
We’ll always be there right in time
We’re so cool that we don’t mind
We’ll never speak in triple tongues
Of the wrongs of the ones we can¹t get to
We’ll never envy anyone
with a gun having fun in a fast car

Cause we’re so human, so common, so refined
We’re always charming, disarming the clue
Always authentic, romantic, electric
Never excentric, three entric, bombastic

In love with silly answers and candy coated pulp
We’re of our potential and silent bout our youth

Don’t ever try to wake us up
From the dream I admit we ain’t dreaming
Don’t give in to a single doubt
in a crowd that ain’t like you
Don’t ever have a second thought
or a fourth or a fifth or a sixteenth
And always try to break the ice
in a gaslit room on fire

Always authentic, the bright stars, the right cars
Always for rentals, the gentles, the true ones
Always authentic, fantastic, so drastic
We're so intriguing, fatiguing ourselves

We pile up our credentials
Our CV-gated smiles
We jump over your fences
Decide we’re just like you
Those systematic breakdowns are easy to explain
These daily deviations mislead us from the main

We’re climbing up a rotten tree
And forget that we cut all the branches
We hide in artificial bush
And we joyride the rendeer
We’ll always make a better deal
Never steal, never blink, never whisper
We’ll always try to please your dad
not the youngest of your sisters

Cause we’re so human, so common, the greatest
We're always charming disarming the clue
Always authentic, the bright stars, the right cars
Always for rentals, the gentles, the true ones
Let's make a scandal, demental our fractals
Let's show the world we’re authentically cruel

With every flight that’s cancelled
The calmer we remain
While waiting by the wrong gate
Authentic’s still our game
