[00:00.00]...
[00:14.94]I can feel it in the air
[00:18.23]I can feel it young and strong
[00:21.89]Like an intoxicating dare
[00:25.60](Like an intoxicating dare)
[00:28.52]For some residue of joy
[00:32.15]Simple pleasures and delights
[00:35.76]Would you buy that ruthless ploy
[00:38.92]Would you buy that ploy?
[00:41.74]Mark my words
[00:43.20]It's not quite what you thought
[00:45.74]Shadow play
[00:48.48]Directed by you
[00:51.46]Love portrays Ms. Take
[00:55.56]The Oscar goes to hate
[00:59.06]Dragons slain
[01:02.61]The princess rescued
[01:05.51]It's all what you create
[01:09.30]Your shadows will be played
[01:13.45]
[01:25.36]And here now comes the sweet caress
[01:29.62]Unreality to guide us
[01:33.57]With a forceful righteousness
[01:36.33](With a forceful righteousness)
[01:40.31]And you can taste the kiss of death
[01:43.60]More divine than breath I know
[01:46.97]Always just the right address
[01:50.15]Just the right caress
[01:53.11]Mark my words
[01:54.44]It's not quite what you thought
[01:57.31]Shadow play
[02:00.03]Directed by you
[02:03.14]Love portrays Ms. Take
[02:06.82]The Oscar goes to hate
[02:10.53]Dragons slain
[02:13.92]The princess rescued
[02:16.85]It's all what you create
[02:20.53]Your shadows will be played
[02:24.53]
[02:43.05]So this is what you think you need
[02:45.69]To play the game
[02:46.94]A pretty royal flush
[02:48.35]Of second hand fame
[02:50.18]For proof of excellence
[02:52.09]For critical acclaim
[02:53.71]Aloof preeminence
[02:55.59]Preceding your pen name
[02:57.50]Clichés of violence
[02:59.17]And off mark blame
[03:00.71]Some character flaws
[03:02.46]To masticate the shame
[03:04.34]*** in a dress in a wide array
[03:07.21]*** in a suit, hello, happy birthday
[03:11.32]Mark my words
[03:12.62]It's never what you thought
[03:15.18]Shadow play
[03:18.32]Directed by you
[03:21.16]Love portrays Ms. Take
[03:24.93]The Oscar goes to hate
[03:29.11]Dragons slain
[03:31.90]The princess rescued
[03:35.01]It's all what you create
[03:38.85]Your shadows will be played
[03:42.77]It's all what you create
[03:45.67]Your shadows will be played
