Had a dream
You and me and the war of the end times
And I believe
California succumbed to the fault line
We heaved relief
As scores of innocents died
And the Andalusian tribes
Setting the lay of the Nebraska alight
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angel
Hetty Green
Queen of supply-side bonhomie bone drab
Know what I mean?
On the road
It's well advised to follow your own path
In the year of the chewable Ambien tab
And the Panamanian child
Stands at the Dowager Empress's side
And all that remains is the arms of the angel
And all that remains is the arms of the angels
And you've receded into loam
And they're picking at your bones
We'll come home
Quiet now
Will we gather to conjure the rain down
Will we now
Build a civilization below ground
And I'll be crowned
The community kick it around
And the Andalusian tribes
Setting the lay of Nebraska alight
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angel
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angels
You and me and the war of the end times
And I believe
California succumbed to the fault line
We heaved relief
As scores of innocents died
And the Andalusian tribes
Setting the lay of the Nebraska alight
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angel
Hetty Green
Queen of supply-side bonhomie bone drab
Know what I mean?
On the road
It's well advised to follow your own path
In the year of the chewable Ambien tab
And the Panamanian child
Stands at the Dowager Empress's side
And all that remains is the arms of the angel
And all that remains is the arms of the angels
And you've receded into loam
And they're picking at your bones
We'll come home
Quiet now
Will we gather to conjure the rain down
Will we now
Build a civilization below ground
And I'll be crowned
The community kick it around
And the Andalusian tribes
Setting the lay of Nebraska alight
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angel
'Til all that remains is the arms of the angels
