Letra Frontier man Gruff Rhys

Frontier man

On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man
When they mistook you for beauty, they were eventually faced by a miserable plan
Still I sing my way to spaces that maudlin shouldn't quest
When the dinner isn't ready, I'm your uninvited guest

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man

Oh, the artist's motivation are the gigs that come from rage
The nightmare of existence thrust them to the stage
But compared to the totalitarian, their whims seem soft and clean
When the future isn't broken, life fence the people in

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man

*Frontier man, come in, your work is done*
Feels like I've just begun
*Frontier man, can't you see what you've become?*
Just a monument to times gone wrong
*Frontier man, come in, your work's begun*
Can't see without my glasses on
*Frontier man, [?]*
Wake me from my coma

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion, I'm your foremost frontier man

On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man
When they mistook you for beauty
They were eventually faced by a miserable clown

Still I sing my way to spaces
That modelling shouldn't quest
When the dinner isn't ready
I'm your uninvited guest

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man

When the artists motivation
Are the gigs that come from rage
The nightmare of existence
Are thrust into the stage

But compared to the totalitarian
Their win seems soft and clean
When the future isn't broken
By a fence that we pull in

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man

(Frontier man, come in, your work is done)
Feels like I've just begun
(Frontier man, can't you see what you've become?)
Just a monument of times gone wrong
(Frontier man, come [?])
Can't see without my glasses on
(Frontier man, let's sing a different song)
Wake me from my coma

Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man
Frontier man, frontier man
On the frontier of delusion
I'm your foremost frontier man
