There, smoke turns into serpents in the air
Beware, there's no sanctuary anywhere
On this very spot, a great city once stood
It oozed with evil but it felt so good
Well I don't know
Where did it go? |
There, smoke turns into serpents in the air
Beware, there's no sanctuary anywhere
On this very spot, a great city once stood
It oozed with evil but it felt so good
Well I don't know
Where did it go? |
And here, there's lots of method in the madness dear
And we're considering remaining here
On this very house a giant was born
With two angry eyes and one sharp black horn
Well I don't know
How could he grow? |
And here, there's lots of method in the madness dear
And we're considering remaining here
In this very house a giant was born
With two angry eyes and one sharp black horn
Well I don't know
How could he grow? |
The fountains gush wine, the chimneys spurt flowers
And me and my friends pass the fleeting hours
Well yes and no
Where did they go? |
The fountains spurt wine and the chimneys gush flowers
When me and my friends pass the fleeting hours
Well I don't know
Where did they go? |
Goodbye, there's no reason, there's no alibi
I'll try to write you a letter from the cyclone's eye
On this very day, a hundred years before
They opened up the future like it was a door
Well I don't know
Where did it go? |
Goodbye, there's no reason and no alibi
I'll try to write you a letter from the cyclone's eye
On this very day, a hundred years before
They opened up the future like it was a door
Well I don't know
Where did they go? |
Towers stretch up, the spires spiral odd
Behind the vicar's gate, the sign, "Beware of God"
Well I don't know
Where did he go? |
Well I don't know
Where did they go? |
