Peter Hammill - Jargon King Lyrics

  • He prescribes the subject
  • he proscribes outsiders
  • his terms have a golden ring.
  • He wants to find some order
  • quantifying chaos
  • in words that all the children sing.
  • He tabulates the lexicon
  • vocabulary minimised
  • bow down to the Jargon King.
  • All questions become so simple
  • if we eat the inane answer
  • if we all agree to ju-ju speak
  • we fit into the formula
  • we all without exception
  • approve the rule.
  • We don't understand
  • he must be clever
  • he must be clever
  • he must be right
  • he must be right
  • we don't understand
  • Closed the ranks and barricades
  • imposed the secret language
  • complexity all catch-phrased
  • word-drugged any anguish
  • pigeon-holed allusions
  • shut the vault behind us
  • It's an obvious conclusion
  • we'll be the chattels of His Highness.
  • Bow down to the Jargon King
  • and his minion code-words.
  • Here comes the reign
