Political Mysticism Lyrics

The British Calendar Act of 1751

Declared twelve days in the following year

Would not exist



On rose afternoons it doesn't rain

The kid with downs is always out

On the back of his dad's motorcycle

Hugging his waist hard, carving parking lots



It's political mysticism

Storyboard the light

It's political mysticism

All this terror's such a fright

It's political mysticism

Keeps you up at night



The British Calendar Act of 1751

Declared twelve days in the following year

Would not exist



And this kid, always in his mirrored shades

Not only too big but slippin'

This kid's interior mirror

Keeps the clockwork of the Earth on time



It's political mysticism

Storyboard the light

It's political mysticism

All this terror's such a fright

It's political mysticism

Keeps you up at night



The British Calendar Act of 1751

Declared the day after Wednesday

September 2nd, 1752

Would be Thursday, September 14

1752
