A Spectacle in Red
Through fires in bloom and wretched bite
scale giants till the vultures fly beneath
This city was built upside down
Branded in time a bow to the maiden of whisper's design
and for you the guest of honor a grain of salt
with the wings of colored lure
the audience will cheer never wasting the sights
tongues will seduce the ears
by licks that promise dreams delight
A test to arms
displayed for starving eyes
Has the initiation appeased your fancy?
Soil bound the obstacles decorating red carpets
that fell beneath to tricks of the trade
Build!
shouts the quiet for the old will awake and reclaim
before the wombs who hath no fury
A foul stench spoil wolves and harlots alike
spectate the feast at thy feet
the audience cheers never wasting the sights
A test to arms
displayed for starving eyes
A test to arms
displayed for starving eyes
More they demand
the exhibition is not enough
to rule the city supreme one must keep the eyes on their toes
Do we have your attention now?
A spectacle in red I'll paint two coats.
A spectacle in red I'll paint two coats
A spectacle in red I'll paint two coats.
Branded in time a bow to the maiden of whisper's design
and for you the guest of honor a grain of salt
with the wings of colored lure
the audience will cheer never wasting the sights
tongues will seduce the ears
by licks that promise dreams delight.
