Pyramid's mania Languid pink lotus-eaters Ominous and luminous Faded to darkened scars Eternity held the stars My how you spoof yourself Your puerile ferocity Scuds' untamed velocity 'neath fearsome thunderstorm Loving before you were born Now you've gone too far You're caught in vertigo Spinning with nowhere to go No one here you can call, Nowhere else to hide at all How's it feel all alone? Just two inches tall, you stand Onstage in a cold, strange land Singing in a silver thong Quirky tunes grace the throng Laughter, hisses and boos Chorus of ridicule Pomposities of smug cool Blinding radioactive rage Taught in a tight cage onstage You're clamoring now Your timid voice starts to crack Look to sky, no one looks back Blood and sweat fuel the swarm Furious scuds preview the storm You ***** a mumbo APOLLO Coventry hail The Black Pharaoh wields his flail Advent of El Diablo Swiftly comes the deathblow Aroused by gravity, ****** ground spins before you ******* tingle tango for two Nobody is calling You're fearlessly falling The wind roars in your ears Ridicule's easing winnow Distorted faces in windows Adagio Eternus Virtue and Disgrace Opus Beadle cleans the sidewalk Of a Swan-song's human rubble Whistling, he's forming a riddle Dangerous timeless Sphinx Bested by the modern Kings

Rise and Fall of the Swan
Pyramid's mania Languid pink lotus-eaters Ominous and luminous Faded to darkened scars Eternity held the stars My how you spoof yourself Your puerile ferocity Scuds' untamed velocity 'neath fearsome thunderstorm Loving before you were born Now you've gone too far You're caught in vertigo Spinning with nowhere to go No one here you can call, Nowhere else to hide at all How's it feel all alone? Just two inches tall, you stand Onstage in a cold, strange land Singing in a silver thong Quirky tunes grace the throng Laughter, hisses and boos Chorus of ridicule Pomposities of smug cool Blinding radioactive rage Taught in a tight cage onstage You're clamoring now Your timid voice starts to crack Look to sky, no one looks back Blood and sweat fuel the swarm Furious scuds preview the storm You ***** a mumbo APOLLO Coventry hail The Black Pharaoh wields his flail Advent of El Diablo Swiftly comes the deathblow Aroused by gravity, ****** ground spins before you ******* tingle tango for two Nobody is calling You're fearlessly falling The wind roars in your ears Ridicule's easing winnow Distorted faces in windows Adagio Eternus Virtue and Disgrace Opus Beadle cleans the sidewalk Of a Swan-song's human rubble Whistling, he's forming a riddle Dangerous timeless Sphinx Bested by the modern Kings
