Wait 'til you're announced
We've not yet lost all our graces
The hounds will stay in chains
Look upon Your Greatness and she'll send the call out
Send, the call out (etc.)
Call all the ladies out, they're in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in, their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room
Dancin' around the lies we tell
Dancin' around big eyes as well, oh...
Even the comatose, they don't dance and tell
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty but we sure know how to run things
Livin' in ruins of the palace within my dreams
