there's bound to be a ghost at the back of your closet
no matter where you live.
there'll always be a few things, maybe several things
that you're gonna find really difficult to forgive.
there's gonna come a day when you feel better.
you'll rise up free and easy on that day
and float from branch to branch,
lighter than the air.
just when that day is coming, who can say? who can say?
our mother has been absent ever since we founded Rome.
but there's gonna be a party when the wolf comes home.
were gonna commandeer the local airwaves
to tell the neighbours whats been going on.
and they will shake their heads and wag their bony fingers
in all the wrong directions,
and by daybreak we'll be gone.
i'm gonna get myself in fighting trim,
scope out every angle of unfair advantage.
i'm gonna bribe the officials.
i'm gonna kill all the judges.
it's gonna take you people years to recover from all of the damage.
