The stars got together and extinguished the moon and sun
|
And they reigned forever, in the night sky they had won
|
The words assassinated the book,
|
The kitchen cooked and ate the cook
|
|
Oh yeah, what is that certain je ne sais quoi?
|
Oh yeah, it's a stone cold coup d'etat
|
Sone cold coup d'etat, stone cold coup d'etat
|
|
The orchestra conductor has been captured and tried and killed
|
And the viola now occupies the throne that he formelly filled
|
The bark now commands the trees
|
The queen is overruled by the bees
|
|
Oh yeah, what is that certain je ne sais quoi?
|
Oh yeah, it's a stone cold coup d'etat
|
Sone cold coup d'etat, stone cold coup d'etat
|
|
But if history is any guide, it cannot be understood
|
When you're not on the winning side
|
|
Around the dinner table, a family says grace
|
And the son sees the secret signal on his sister's face
|
Dad smiles at his wife, daughter reaches for the knife
|
|
Oh yeah, what is that certain je ne sais quoi?
|
Oh yeah, it's a stone cold coup d'etat
|
Sone cold coup d'etat, stone cold coup d'etat
|
Oh yeah, what is that certain je ne sais quoi?
|
Oh yeah, it's a stone cold coup d'etat
|
Sone cold coup d'etat, stone cold coup d'etat.
