You took me down to Alexandria
Showed me where the library stood
All this rampant kind of ignorance
Is happening everywhere that you look
Oh God

And in between drinking
Impairing your hearing
Being so bloody uninspiring, singing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
All the way home
You've not known much at all

For the love of ash grey
You barter far too much away
For the love of ash grey
You lie within a single state

I have a book and you yourself have written in it
And if you want I'll let you take a look at it
Know all there is to know, or just remain a shadow of it

You took mе down to Alexandria
Showed me whеre the library stood
I held a book, a match, a tin of kerosene
I didn't feel very good
Oh God
