Intro: verse 1: The banners wave upon the promenade The banners wave upon the promenade Colors fly and the funeral march is played There is, is there a foul taste in the air There is, is there a foul taste in the air Your legend walks before you everywhere Your legend walks before you everywhere And all you want from me is someone to abuse Whether rags are on your back or gleams on your jewels So roll up your sleeves one of us must be wrong And hold me close until the feelings gone Woah Hold me close until the feeling's gone verse 2: Your daddy daddy was a buccanner Your daddy daddy was a buccanner To speak his name is to watch him disappear And every time you touched me in my field And every time you touched me in my field The colors fade and the flowers wilt Cuz all you want from me is someone to abuse Whether callus on your back or gold is on your tooth So roll up your sleeves one of us must be wrong And hold me close until the feeling's gone Woah! Hold me close until the feeling's gone Bridge/post-Chorus:
