There smoke turns into serpents in the air Beware, there's no sanctuary anywhere On this very spot, a great city once stood It oozed with evil but it felt so good Well, I don't know, where did it go? And here, there's lots of method in their madness, dear And we're considering remaining here In this very house a giant was born With two angry eyes and one sharp black horn Well, I don't know, how could he grow? The fountains gush wine, the chimneys spurt flowers
Where me and my friends pa** the fleeting hours Well, yes and no, where did they go? Goodbye, there's no reason, there's no alibi I'll try to write you a letter from the cyclone's eye On this very day, a hundred years before They opened up the future like it was a door Well, I don't know, where did it go? The towers stretch up, the spires spiral odd Behind the vicar's gate, the sign, 'Beware of God' Well, I don't know, where did he go?
