City Lyrics

    There, smoke turns into serpents in the air
    Beware, there's no sanctuary anywhere
    On this very spot, a great city once stood
    It oozed with evil but it felt so good
    Well i don't know
    Where did it go?


    And here, there's lots of method in their madness dear
    And we're considering remaining here
    In this very house a giant was born
    With two angry eyes and one sharp black horn
    Well i don't know
    How could he grow?


    The fountains gush wine
    The chimneys spurt flowers
    Where me and my friends pass the fleeting hours
    Well yes and no
    Where did they go?


    Goodbye, there's no reason, there's no alibi
    I'll try to write you a letter from the cyclone's eye
    On this very day, a hundred years before
    They opened up the future like it was a door
    Well i don't know
    Where did it go?


    The towers stretch up, the spires spiral odd
    Behind the vicar's gate, the sign, "beware of god"
    Well i don't know
    Where did he go?
