Eugene McGuinness - Lion lyrics

I'm sitting on the ventriloquists knee Allowing his hands somewhere they shouldn't be My disgraceful quest for immortality An adventure in an airship inflated by my ego, go Behind the book case,start to study I'm stitching up freaks in my secret laboratory The subtext is dire and the s** is not on fire But if beauty is truth, that makes you a l-l-liar The lions are out on the prowl So lions i will believe you for now Cross dressing cage fighters juggle the bones Skeletons dancing upon xylophones As blossom falls from the trees We'll feast upon the plump juniper berries The writing's on the wall and it says red rum On this side of the mirror so go fetch me some They need a volunteer, total submission The Edwardian music-hall magician Is listening in, he'll cut you with his car keys I'm also sitting on the ventriloquist's knee My disgraceful quest for immortality My disgraceful quest for immortality The lions are out on the prowl So lions, I will believe you for now And I was raised by wild wolves In the brutal wilderness And I'll take you for a fool But if you help me out of this Cross dressing cage fighters juggle the bones Skeletons dancing upon xylophones As blossom falls from the trees We'll feast upon the plump juniper berries
