lyrics

This is the warmest place on The Earth and The Sun is nowhere to be seen,
The Sinners wait with The Saints as we cake you in Vaseline,
Tar and feather your behind,
We'll paddle your sorry ass 'til it hurts your eyes.

I've got you a skeleton key to The Bone-Ball,
We are all in the same boat,
We are all in the same boat,
We are...

So raise your black flag with its skull and its bones and prepare for the fight of your life,
Summon an army, I'll cook up a storm and together we'll tussle all night,
Voided ticket - has been paid,
The time has come to cash the chips you’ve played.

I've got you a skeleton key to The Bone-Ball,
We are all in the same boat,
We are all in the same boat,
We are...

Look what I am now: a former of myself,
A portrait for the future and a caricature of the past,
Just a dirigible for your own hand,
It's a shame that you would take this thing straight to land.

I've got you a skeleton key to The Bone-Ball,
We are all in the same boat,
We are all in the same boat,
We are...
We are...

Take my cutlass,
I'm a careless fool,
Close the curtains,
You're subverting the rules,
Just concede it:
You can't see this through,
Can't believe it,
You had everything to lose...

You lose.

With a carousel of contributors & co-writers across all releases, currently performing as a five-piece, in violet continues to push the envelope of just how far one wild idea can go ... more
