I’m sitting on the ventriloquist's knee Allowing his hands somewhere they shouldn’t be My disgraceful quest for immortality An adventure in the airship inflated by my ego Behind the bookcase start to study I’m stitching up freaks in my secret laboratory The subtext is dire and the *** is not on fire But if beauty is truth that makes you a l-l-l-liar
The lions are out on prowl So lie and I will believe you for now Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah, oh-ah
Crossdressing cage fighters juggle the bones Skeletons dancing up on xylophones The blossom falls from the trees We will feast upon the fat juniper berries The writing's on the wall and it says red rum On this side of the mirror so go fetch me some They need a volunteer, total submission the Edwardian music hall musician Is listening in, he'll cut you with his car keys and I’m still sitting on the ventriloquist's knee My disgraceful quest for immortality My disgraceful quest for immortality
The lions are out on prowl So lie and will believe you for now And I was raised by wild wolves In the brutal wilderness And I take you for a fool If you help me out of this m-m-m-m-mess
