His Kingly Cave by Frank Black & The Catholics
His Kingly Cave lyrics
He wants an altered state, inside the mansion walls
She says she?d rather wait, yeah, for evening to fall
But still the cap they eat and with a drink they chased
The ghost that called
They went to celebrate, they went to have a ball
Everyone gathered at the gates but it wasn?t good at all
The sky was turning gray, they laughed at their mistake
As their skin began to crawl
Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now
They closed the gates and the scene was set
Enter into his kingly cave
Don?t worry the leopards won?t bite you
Wipe that big tear away
See they got jumpsuits on the headless cast
And polished jewels under two inch glass
And bullet holes in Vernon?s room out back
Don?t worry the posse won?t shoot you
No more crying today
He?s tripping over graves, as the rain begins to fall
And finally they escape, when the shuttle bus is called
The mourners now abate as one begins to say
I scream, I scream for all
Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now
They closed the gates and the scene was set
Enter into his kingly cave
Don?t worry the leopards won?t bite you
Wipe that big tear away
See they got jumpsuits on the headless cast
And polished jewels under two inch glass
And bullet holes in Vernon?s room out back
Don?t worry the posse won?t shoot you
No more crying today
Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now
Too late for to go back now
Enter into his kingly cave
He wants an altered state, inside the mansion walls
She says she?d rather wait, yeah, for evening to fall
But still the cap they eat and with a drink they chased
The ghost that called
Yes, very nice
