The Rule Against Perpetuities
I hear purple hearted amphetamines
Jasmine flowers and banana leaves
The gravity of endless youth
In absolutes you spoke the truth
Turn up that radio
If this ain't the Holy Ghost
Then I don't know
Poor little angel in a manic state
Collapsed outside the pearly gates
Someone's always blocking
The schoolhouse door
Life is full of minor chords
Time itself is ready for a change
In the next life gonna shake that thing
Bebop Belula she's my babe
If you said that prayer
We believe you're saved
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
From broken slumbers on a weary night
Appeared a crying orb of orange light
The bombardeers were casting lots
To woo the bored tears debutantes
Born in flesh bred in bone
Hands on yer hips let your mind roll on
Fate is standing outside your door
The ship has sailed you been waiting for
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
My melancholy imaginary friend
Said it's real it ain't pretend
We're dancing in the mind of god
The lights go low but hold applause
I'll love you to death I can rob you blind
Ain't no hammer on this mountain that can ring like mine
It's me from the future
We haven't met
Don't slit your wrists
At least not yet
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
Jasmine flowers and banana leaves
The gravity of endless youth
In absolutes you spoke the truth
Turn up that radio
If this ain't the Holy Ghost
Then I don't know
Poor little angel in a manic state
Collapsed outside the pearly gates
Someone's always blocking
The schoolhouse door
Life is full of minor chords
Time itself is ready for a change
In the next life gonna shake that thing
Bebop Belula she's my babe
If you said that prayer
We believe you're saved
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
From broken slumbers on a weary night
Appeared a crying orb of orange light
The bombardeers were casting lots
To woo the bored tears debutantes
Born in flesh bred in bone
Hands on yer hips let your mind roll on
Fate is standing outside your door
The ship has sailed you been waiting for
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
My melancholy imaginary friend
Said it's real it ain't pretend
We're dancing in the mind of god
The lights go low but hold applause
I'll love you to death I can rob you blind
Ain't no hammer on this mountain that can ring like mine
It's me from the future
We haven't met
Don't slit your wrists
At least not yet
Kingdoms Come
Kingdoms Fall
That's the rules against
Perpetuities, baby Doll
