84.The Death Of Ferdinand De Saussure

作詞：Stephin Raymond Merritt

I met Ferdinand de Saussure
On a night like this
On love he said, 'I'm not so sure
I even know what it is'

'No understanding, no closure
It is a nemesis
You can't use a bulldozer
To study orchids'

He said, 'So we don't know anything
You don't know anything
I don't know anything about love
But we are nothing, you are nothing
I am nothing without love'

I'm just a great composer
And not a violent man
But I lost my composure
And I shot Ferdinand

Crying, 'It's well and kosher
To say you don't understand
But this is for
Holland-Dozier-Holland'

His last words were, 'We don't know anything
You don't know anything
I don't know anything about love
But we are nothing, you are nothing
I am nothing without love'

His fading words were, 'We don't know anything
You don't know anything
I don't know anything about love
But we are nothing, you are nothing
I am nothing without love'
