Far From Finished Fanfare
Here comes the fanfare
Just picture them all in their underwear
You won't mind if they stare
All you listeners beware
We've got something new for you
Something for all you boys and girls to stomp your feet
to
It's something old, and it's hardly been used
Something strange has crossed my mind
What if we left you all behind?
Would you be scared?
Would you be ready for the fanfare?
There's a parade in the name of Old King Cade
And the sisters of mercy and the motorcade
Too many colors for one to name
Is this real or is it just a game?
Swing together like marionettes and
Dance the sound of the castanets
Little boys on their skateboards playing too rough
Little girls telling jokes and swinging double dutch
and
I can only stay here so long before I get too scared
and leave
I've never seen everyone so happy there's just so much
to believe
And I can hardly wait for next year
For the fanfare, fanfare, fanfare, fanfare
A great big bang
Let the fire commence
With the sound of the Tabernacle Choir
Of the ill intent
Shameless now we are
As we're draped in night and stars
There's animals in us all
I can only stay here so long before I get too scared
and leave
I've never seen everyone so happy there's just so much
to believe
And I can hardly wait for next year
For the fanfare, fanfare, fanfare, fanfare
Jessica and Janine, what do you think?
Are we gonna take this shit and run?
Are we gonna stay here and blink?
And who do you trust?
Are you in the dark to the Ginger Prince?
Fanfare, fanfare, fanfare, fanfare, fanfare, fanfare,
fanfare, fanfare
