"Patience, friends. Patience..."

[treeduck]

What's the new RUSH single called then? WINE MERCENARIES?

 

And here are the lyrics:

 

Wearing the mask of a touring musician

but beneath that disguise I'm a mercenary bitch

I hit all the right notes with customary precision

but I only perform to scratch my expensive taste itch

 

Roaming the roads on my riding machine

Fleeing the faithful those rats of the scene

Performers don't always possess the schmooze gene

I need to escape but don't call me mean

 

Wine in the cellar it won't do me no good

I drink till I'm drowning, look like old Elmer Fudd

glug

glug glug

glug glug

glug

glug glug

glug glug

Ahhhhh

Empty glasses and empty caskets

damn you, time for a tour and maybe an album

but a single may do

 

And so I ride, like a real biker

And I laugh at religious folk

I'm as fat as Will Riker

but at least I'm not broke

And I'll cast off the charade of the rock star

And hide with my posh wife ironically in L.A.

I'll order a scotch whiskey at a bar

And chew the fat in Rio with Pele

 

Wearing the King's clothing of stardom

hilariously, I'm really a tight fisted little prick

I bang animals skins and yet act like I'm Barnum

And the unwashed and the fools make me sick

 

Wine in the bottle is useless to me

Unless I'm sniffing or swallowing Romanee conti (at least)

glug

glug glug

glug glug

glug

glug glug

glug glug

ohhh

That hit the spot and I don't care

about stains on my pants in my hair

less about nerdish vinyl squares

 

And so I tour and I play all the old ones

An Owl on the cover that I secretly hate

I look like my head is composed of red wine

And explodes from my loin when I masturbate

But in my lovely villa in my love nest

I can finally soak in a barrel of the best

 

And so I ride, like a real biker

And I laugh at religious folk

I'm as fat as a piker

but I'm not hooked on coke

And I'll cast off the charade of the rock band

sit in my lounge with my new tart

and pretend I'm a "good" writer

and not a fool pushing sentences apart

never saw that photo before. . . Cool!

I assume it is from the Tribeca Film Festival back in 2010 (based on the photo-title)??
