Violins - The Two Simonas lyrics

Princess suspended in a metal cage While angry apes roll barrels Down blue girders through the red states Me, I'm a condescending caricature Some might say "jump" I might jump But, hey, the kid's got characters Simona swings From silver strings She turned our colors untrue I knew both Simonas I saw sides that you could never I still have dreams to savor But Simona found the lever And she won release Despite our pleas They cried They caved They paid the fees They sent her home So we could see The two faces speak The calm and the complexion Wasn't only misdirection If she floats without a**istance Smell a witch and test her resistance The souls to save Were blond and brave Until they opened their mouths I surprised as you to find Our sympathies were not theirs Canceling the flowers to their families And changing prayers to curses When we found veils in their purses If we can't have their heads Then you can take their bodies back I knew both Simonas And I loved them both as equals Both distressing damsels Both disarming and depressing me She did a great impression of me Twin princesses sing incessantly Simona sings of self-defense for monsters While my neighbors lie there Dying in their deserts To defend rights won by slavers
