Lyrics

You’ve found Someone to flay
Hooray hooray hooray
Throw a ticker-tape parade
For the absence of refrain
Stalwart chasms with whipping boys
Glance upon the surface
To the panoply of mantras
Decreed by necromancers
Looking forward while talking backwards

Surprised you didn’t notice
Cleopatra’s savoir faire
Hey finesse devil’s magic guest at your behest
We’ve all got something to lose
A momentary lapse of truth
Hey finesse devil’s magic guest at your behest

Fashionable glamorous are bygone quips
Erected out of static
A breathtaking ruse
Groveling at the arc
For a candle in the dark

Surprised you didn’t notice
Cleopatra’s savoir faire
Hey finesse devil’s magic guest at your behest
We’ve all got something to lose
A momentary lapse of truth
Hey, finesse, devils magic guest at your behest

It’s shilly shally
It’s shilly shally
It’s shilly shally
It’s shilly shally
It’s shilly shally
