his kingly cave

Singer:frank black

he wants an altered state

inside the mansion walls

she says she'd rather wait

yeah

for evening to fall

but still the cap they ate

and with a drink they chased

the ghost that called

they went to celebrate

they went to have a ball

everyone gathered at the gates

but it wasn't good at all

the sky was turning gray

they laughed at their mistake

as their skin began to crawl

hey

but it's too late for to go back now

they closed the gates and the scene was set

enter into his kingly cave

don't worry

the leopards won't bite you

wipe that big tear away

see

they got jumpsuit on a headless cast

and polished jewels under 2-inch glass

and bullet holes in vernon's room out back

don't worry

the posse won't shoot you

no more crying today

he's tripping over graves

as rain begins to fall

and finally they escape

when the shuttle bus is called

the mourners now abate

and one begins to say

i scream

i scream for all

hey

but it's too late for to go back now

they closed the gates and the scene was set

enter into his kingly cave

don't worry

the leopards won't bite you

wipe that big tear away

see

they got jumpsuit on a headless cast

and polished jewels under 2-inch glass

and bullet holes in vernon's room out back

don't worry

the posse won't shoot you

no more crying today

hey

but it's too late for to go back now

too late for the go back now

enter into his kingly cave

he wants an altered state

inside the mansion walls

she says she'd rather wait

for evening to fall

but still the cap they ate

and with a drink they chased

the ghost that called

yes

yes
