lyrics

Give them rope
Hope that will hold them
The cliff is rocky
The waters beneath polluted
The television king roars in despair
The radio program announces a winner

Your thoughts dance drunk
Your mind is traveling
The day you die is the day you fly
The radio announces a winner again
"City of night" the Singer screams

The television king is lying dead on the floor
His blood is crawling out of his soulless body
"This is the End..." the Singer, the Poet, sings
The television king is dead

The television king is dead
The television king is dead
The television king is dead
The television king is dead
