Ancient Rome, we built that fucker stone by stone

Our fingers bled, our feet were worn

But we stood strong and carried on

Come on in, do you want to touch my bulbous head?

With features wrapped and stretched to death

A tiny nose is all that's left

This is not for your entertainment

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones continues on

The basement's gone, it seems they dug up all our land

The world was lowered man by man, let's move

The sky and not join hands

Ancient rome, we built that fucker stone by stone

Our fingers bled, our feet were worn

But we stood strong and carried on

This is not for your entertainment

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones continues on

Life still sounds like balloons

You chew and you chew and chew

Your teeth crumble to the floor

It's where they lay, it's where they lay

Our past never really dies

I don't think we even try

There's no difference from where we wake

Or where we die

Balloons, balloons, balloons

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on

The land at the end of our toes goes on and on

The sand at the core of our bones continues on
