lyrics

33

If everybody wanted to be me
then were would I live?
I couldn't fit them in my American room

if everybody wanted to be as pretty as you
what would you wear?
we'd have to loot the bodies for irregular shoes

if everybody wanted to win
the trophy smelting factory would never close

i had me a dream that didn't have me in the dream
how can I be washed up at thirty three?
I'd like to thank the academy
(for this "greatest lover's" trophy)
but all alone its just a hollow victory

if everybody wanted to smoke weed
then who'd be on time?
we'd change New York back into New New Amsterdam
(if you live in Istanbul then you once lived in Constantinople)

if everybody wanted to be on TV
then you should check the warranty
cause I don't think this box can handle that density
(I am your density)

if everybody wanted to breathe
we better shut down the trophy factory

I had me a dream that didn't have me in the dream
how can I be washed up at 33?
I'd like to thank the academy
(for this "greatest lover's" trophy)
but all alone I’m just a pyrrhic victor

I am the winner of a thousand years of emptiness and
A champion of worldwide airwave lies
We’ll turn the graveyards to amusement parks at gunpoint

Singing “Give Peace A Chance”
Hand in hand
All night
To win a hollow victory
a hollow victory
a hollow victory
to win all alone is just as empty

Agents of Venus New York, New York

AoV's hyper-melodic masterpieces are piped in from deep space with the blessings of the Sun Eve, inventing psychedelic lust- letters to the Goddess of Love herself. Songwriters Allen Towbin (aka Agent 333, vocals, guitars, bass, keys) and Phil Ristaino (aka Artron Avalon, vocals, raps, lyrics, art) bloom purple coated sunflowers of sound down your noise-holes and into your hearts and minds! ... more
