Do you know the warm progress under the stars?
Do you know we exist?
Have you forgotten the keys to the kingdom?
Have you been born yet and are you alive?
[Eb]
Let's reinvent the gods, all the myths of the ages.
Celebrate symbols from deep elder forests.
Have you [Em] forgotten the lessons of the ancient war?
We need great golden populations.
Father, they're cackling in trees of the forest.
Her mother is dead in the sea.
[E] [Em] [Bm] Do you know we are being led to slaughters by [E] placid admirals [Em] and that fat, slow generals are
getting [E] obscene on young blood?
[G] Do you know we are ruled [E] by P.V.?
[Bm] [E] [Bm]
[A] [E] [Bm] The moon [E] is a [D] dry blood beast.
[Em] Guerrilla bands are [Bm] rolling [E] numbers in the [Bm] next block of green vine, [E] amassing [Bm] for warfare of
[E] innocent [Bm] herdsmen [A] who are just dying.
[Em] [G] Oh, great creator of [Gbm] being, grant [Em] us one [A] more hour to
[G] perform our art and perfect our lines.
[Em] [D] [G] Moths and atheists are doubly divine [Gbm] in dying.
[G] [D]
[G] We live,
we die, and death not ends it.
Journey we moor into the nightmare, cling to life by [Gbm] a patch [E] of
flower, cling to cunts and [G] cocks of despair.
[A]
We got our [G] final vision by [A] clap, [Gbm] [E] Columbus's groin
that filled with green death.
I touched her thigh and death smiled.
[Gm]
[F] [Gm] We have assembled inside this
ancient, [F] insane theater [Gm] to propagate our lust for life and flee the swarm [F] of wisdom and [G] swifts.
[Dm] [Cm] [Dm]
The [G] barns [F] are stormed, the windows [G] kept, and only one [F] of all the rest to [G] dance and [F] save us
with the divine [Gm] mockery of words, [F]
music, [Bb] and [F] flames' temperament.
[E] [Dm]
[Gb] [F]
[Gm]
[F] [Gm]
[F] True king's [Bb] murderers are
allowed to [Gm] roam free, a thousand [F] editions around the [Gm] land.
[F]
[Gm] [C] Where are the feasts we were promised?
[Ab] [Ebm] [Eb] Where's the wine, the new wine, dying on the vine?
