Masquerade
(This is new) [barely audibly spoken]
And what is that branch?
What branch is it?
Account is altered
And nine year olds
Walk around
In debt record
Account is altered
The grim visage
Account is delta
All yours
The web descends
Look to your grey hairs
And back your horses
About a week
A special allowance
Ran out yesterday
The Masquerah..
The Masquerade
The Masqueraderie
Like a fish dish
The grim visage
Altered again
And again
The fifty percent interest
Ran out today
Account altered
In succour
All granted
Knew your desperate comrades
Evaporated
And what is that branch?
What branch is it?
That has the pipe
Of Aluminium
Sprawling underneath it?
You rich pig
What the hell's it?
The Masquerah..
The Masquerade
The Masqueraderie
The web descends
Look to your grey hairs
And back you horses
About a week
A special allowance
Ran out yesterday
The Masquerah..
The Masquerade
The Masqueraderie
Like a fish dish
The grim visage
Altered again
And again
The fifty percent interest
Ran out today
In Bolton
In succour
All granted
Knew you
