Embassy Row

embassy row
|
|
Old intuition -- on your dock we're fishin'
|
Come on now, give us a grade
|
A for effort, and a B for delivery
|
C for devotion when the world starts encroaching on your plans
|
Where is the savoir, where is the savoir -- he's not here right now
|
Where is the savoir, where is the savoir-faire?
|
|
Embassy row -- the fumes they lay low
|
On lanes that are wide -- where the limousines glide
|
On the wrought-iron gates and the bone china plates
|
And don't forget your manners where the anthems play
|
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take a crown
|
|
Maids, they are frisked -- and asses are kissed
|
I needed a visa -- I bought off a geezer
|
Political favors could make you a savior
|
In an open corner where the news is late
|
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
In a netherworld of foriegn feeds
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
|
I'm gonna take a crown, I'm gonna take a crown
|
|
I need to get born, I need to get dead
|
I'm sick of the forms, I'm sick of being misread
|
By men in dashikis and their lefist weeklies
|
Colonized wrath -- their shining new path
|
The converted castle of moorish design
|
If you want to stay the weekend, well, we wouldn't mind
|
The plots they are hatching, the surface is scratching
|
In an open corner where the news is late
|
|
In a netherland of foriegn beads
|
In a netherland of foriegn beads
|
In a netherland of foriegn beads
|
I'm gonna take you down, I'm gonna take the crown
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
|
I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown
|
