I see princes kissing lepers
I see emperors kissing beggars
I see goddesses fucking good liars
I see money
I hear jesters jest each other
I hear buzzards buzz the butcher
I hear muses and their mothers
I hear music
On the floor, on the move
Take it up to your room
I don't say, I don't mind
I stay quiet all the time
I feel colors never pictured
I feel movements off the meter
I feel blues come off the heater
I feel lucky
I know less with every moment
I know when to be reminded
I know slow and fast and blinded
I know tricks
Repeat Chorus
On the floor I stay quiet
On the move all the time
