Corpses in Regalia

Protomartyr

Compositor: Joseph Casey / Gregory Joseph Ahee / Alexander Leonard / Scott Warner Davidson

From a high window, I spied a pale brown thing
Though it was very far away, I heard its voice inside my head
You've been spending your time with corpses in regalia
Better get to stepping while you can

They have a certain charm
The way they move
The way they mouth the words
Drinking Balthazars

Decent people don't live like that
Decent folk don't live that good

Fools on the beach
The sand is little bones
Watch where you go
Watch where you go
Watch where you go

They know how to slow time
The way they gloam
The way they promote the brand
Drinking Nebuchadnezzers

Decent people don't live like that
Decent folk don't live that good

Oh, you fools
There's teeth in the surf
Watch where you go
Watch where you go
Watch where you go
Watch where you go

From a high window, I spied a pale brown thing
Though it was very far away, I heard its voice inside my head
You've been spending your time with corpses in regalia
Better get to stepping while you can
