The Scene

The big ticket rock stars, they come and they go

With folk fusion gimmicks, comedy, electronics

Our story's been the same since 1996

Selling sushi in an idli shop for you

With rock and blues and jazz and rolls on the menu

Selling sushi is the scene

Hope you know what I mean

Selling sushi is the scene

That's how we wrapped up this dream, this dream

I see you're a producer of passion

I see you're the chairman of cool

But if you're the director of my music

I'd rather have the president's rule

I'd like to be just like Lennon

You know, sometimes I play the fool

You can turn an event into history

Your sponsors on auto-renew

The drones, they're dripping Kingfisher

As you fuck with the bands at your venue

Selling sushi is the scene

Hope you know what I mean

Selling sushi is the scene

That's how we wrapped up this dream, this dream

It's getting cold here in this spotlight

As you rattle your cutlery

Don't let me play a hole in your conversation

All I know is that this joke's on me

I don't need you to understand anymore

And you can have all my tunes for free

Now you're thinking this song is so bittersweet

You wear that smile so well

Shake my hand when I'm done, tell me it's been a treat

I promise not to kiss and tell

Selling sushi is the scene

Hope you know what I mean

Selling sushi is the scene

That's how we wrapped up this dream, this dream

Selling sushi

Would you like some chutney with that?
