Manu Delago - Looking For The Core; Lyrics

It's always nice when other people who like Manu Delago get in touch via my blog (for the record, it's less nice when East European boys wanting to marry me get in touch; sorry guys). A recent visitor's just informed me she plans on covering Looking For The Core from Handmade - that song's going to be really quite difficult for pretty much everyone in the band, so I thought I'd help out by transcribing the lyrics.

Here they are, for anyone who wants them - her voice and accent are really hard to understand (seriously, listen to her pronunciation of 'encyclopedia'. Seriously), but the whole thing makes a lot more sense now when you listen to the track. I personally always thought it was 'small taste of fear' in the refrain..

There's a world,
That'll take our tragedies.
Go downstairs in the dark room(s),
Enter the world of the moon.
He's called Earl, he's pretty old,
His eyes are empty.
Although your eye is red, you can't see more than Earl, 'cause it's too dark.

Now you're looking for the core [close your eyes].

Smell
Smell Taste
Smell Taste and Feel
You have to Smell Taste and Feel Listen
Smell Taste and Feel and
Listen Smell Taste and Feel and
Listen Smell Taste and Feel and
Listen You have to Smell Taste and Feel Listen
Smell Taste and Feel and
Listen Smell Taste and Feel
Smell Taste
Smell

Earl knows lots, he is an en-cy-clo-pe-dia,
But there is something, there is something, he won't ever know;
Green red blue, are only names,
He's never seen them fire on a sky.
How do you like black?
Is anything different?
Try to differ with your heart.

So are you looking for the core?
You're looking for the core.

Smell Taste and Feel, and
Listen Smell Taste and Feel, and
Listen Smell Taste and Feel, and
Listen You have to Smell Taste and Feel Listen
Smell Taste and Feel oooh
Smell Taste and Feel, [ah] Smell Taste and Feel
You have to smell you have to smell
You have to smell and taste and feel and listen
[yes] and feel and listen
[ah] you have to, [ah] you have to smell
[ah] you have to smell and taste and feel and taste and feel and listen
[ah] you have to, [ah] you have to smell, and taste, and smell and taste and feel, and listen
[and] you have to listen
you have to, [ah] you have to, to feel and taste, to feel and taste and smell and listen
feel and taste and, you feel and taste and smell and listen
you have to listen,
you have to listen,
[to listen]
