[rev. May 28, 2015]
Cool water snake glides a skyscraper lake
In its serpentine chimes the reverb overtakes
Chromatic man, meadow in a can
Daddy you can do it if anybody can
Ride with the monarch
Ride with the monarch
Searching up a sidestreet holographic haze heat
Simulated blackout in the back beat
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Nothing in this world he can't erase
With his magnetic head and a well turned phrase
Talking 'bout machines that justify the means
Pyramid schemes ripping at the seams
Phantom power drones authenticity
Everywhere the hum of spilled electricity
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Purple velvet liquid coming on so vivid
Drink the pink elixir just the way that he did
See the crash of Rome not too far from home
All the clustered cities underneath the dome
Windows start to vibrate
It orchestrates the earthquake
Queen to knights pawn three
I'll bet you that its checkmate
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
Ride with the monarch (with the monarch)
