lyrics

Another bad impression, another proof for the pile
We haven't had very good luck for a while
We mix our ink, wipe our plates with care
No matter what we do we can't print that bon à tirer
À la poupée and chine-collé, we're printing our lives away
If the solvents don't kill us we'll try some other way

Another bad impression, another proof for the pile
We haven't had very good luck for a while
We mix our ink, wipe our plates with care
No matter what we do we can't print that bon à tirer
Dutch mordant and Belgian beer
We've got a lot of fluids in here
But no matter what we drink
We can't print that bon à tirer
It's not like there's something we lack
We've even got a piano in the back
With ink on the ivories
So all the keys are black
