Zero Tolerance

My eyes itch, my nose is running
And my throat feels like after a night out in outer space
As if the oxygen in the air wishes me harm
Yes it's perfectly clear, though it's invisible, more than a little confused
Can it be something I brushed against?
Can it be someone I stood next to?
Can it be a year at high volume
Could it be some kind of strange insect?
The doctor gave me no explanation, just some sort of medicine
He said 'My friend I have no idea, you seen to have an allergy'
Is it to disasters or is it against shame and statistics?
Is it to kittens or full moons, to general hysteria
Is it to pessimism or urinals, or stereotypes or liberals
Or genetically modified tomatoes to big cities with too narrow streets
If I give up lactose, or go to bed around eleven
If I always hold the door for those who can't themselves
Or promise to never go on stage at a Melody Festival
He said you'll definitely be better but you'll never be well
 
The symptoms stand in neat rows
The medicine just makes me weak
One more thing we can't deal with
There's so much we can't tolerate, the smallest thing becomes a disaster
Now I'm standing here with shaking hand
Looking for answers as if they existed somewhere
Was it then that the sickness saw its chance
Or is it just because I lack tolerance
How much do we manage? Everything
How much do we tolerate? Zero
How much do we manage? Everything
How much do we tolerate? Zero
How much do we manage? Everything
How much do we tolerate? Zero
We tolerate zero. We tolerate zero.
 
Doctor we live in the world's cleanest country
Still I'm so intolerant I even get sick from dust
And I was born in a city with such sensible volume
That even music from a passing car made me take a load of Bricanyl
What if it's you I can't tolerate?
It's a damned shame the problem's with me.
What if our sky was completely blue
Instead it's the colour of an electrical cabinet
That lady the other day begging for money on the tube
And those saucer-sized rashes I got on my skin in minutes
Could it be home style blogs?
Could it be too much fast food?
Scandal headlines, parlimentary politics, threat from the climate?
I don't know how it can be remedied
Yeah the intolerance in Europe
But a life is wasted fast, thank heaven for my health-care card
How the hell can I keep up my defences when I can't even keep my word?
So please doctor, is there anything stronger you can give?
Cause right now it feels like I'm looking but I can never see.

And we're climbing the walls, and we don't tolerate graffiti on the walls
The judge said keep them on the benches, instead we're fighting in the stands.
Stuck in too-small shoes and they're getting tight.
What if we were sued by pre-judgements?
How can I be healthy if the doctor needs more money?
And we just clash, like purple and red
And the world is crashing, like something inside it is dead
So give me strength to tolerate, doctor, give me strength to tolerate *1
I said give me strength to tolerate, doctor, give me strength to tolerate
 

Sprinkle a little sugar over me

I don't really remember where I met you first
No matter what I've said no matter what you've heard
I think I was introduced to you by someone else
Probably my dad, mum or her husband
However it was, long our relationship has lasted
Although my job changed our situation somewhat
You've made gloomy days better just by being there
And I wonder actually how long I'm going to be in love.
Definitely as long as I live - but you know that
When I die you'll still be here, you're a piece of my soul
You've made my life easier in all that has happened
And when I think about it it seems predetermined.
 
Bless me mucho I can't be without
Sprinkle a little sugar over me like only you can
Bless me mucho give me nothing but the best
Sprinkle a little sugar over me and it wants to grow
Bless me mucho it makes me want to live
Sprinkle a little sugar over me, I want more
Bless me mucho constantly
Sprinkle a little sugar over me, would you kindly.
 
You're beautiful, you're sad, you're angry, you're happy
I need you in my life - I mean every day
It warms my whole body just to touch you
I don't really understand the way you can touch me.
But there's no situation you are not welcome in
When everything is at its crappiest and everything is comedy
But I feel this deeply so I know I exist
Because I associate you with all my amazing memories.
If my love ever was true, then it's true between us
You calm me completely and help me to burn loose
Without you my life wouldn't have been the same
For every step I've taken we've taken together.
 
Bless me mucho I can't be without
Sprinkle a little sugar over me like only you can
Bless me mucho give me nothing but the best
Sprinkle a little sugar over me and it wants to grow
Bless me mucho It makes me want to live
Sprinkle a little sugar over me, I want more
Bless me mucho constantly
Sprinkle a little sugar over me, would you kindly.
 
But sometimes you can be low but it's like that with everything
You can be good, you can be best and you know that it's true.
It hurts me to see people treat you badly
We've had our rows, now it's the same as before
Some people have no respect, but I know you forgive.
I listen to you but in front of me I see you're crying.
Cause I know you've had enough of people with false motives
And I talk to you through mics on black stands
Your songs can be mightier than weapons or bombs
When you sing about what happened and about things that are coming
This is my way to thank you for being there
And dropped the soundtrack to a time that has run away.
 
Bless me mucho I can't be without

Bless me mucho constantly
