Banquet At The World’s End Lyrics by Daniel Amos

MotorCycle

0

[Verse 1]
The beautiful people all send their excuses:
(Real estate and sex lives, livestock and ex-wives)
But the poor are coming, the lame are running
In their sleazy clothes and orthopedic shoes
There's a harelip spokesman shouting out the news

[Chorus]
"Come to the banquet at the world's end!"

[Verse 2]
There's a string ensemble, and the King's court jester
Telling parables and big jokes, to mongoloids and old folks
The blind are seeing, the dead are breathing
And the mummies dance in geriatric style
The amputees are rolling down the aisles

[Chorus]
Come to the banquet at the world's end!

[Bridge]
Candlelight and party hats, duck and pheasant under glass
Aluminum walkers, thin white canes, caviar and pink champagne
The bride and the groom waltz on Club Foot Lane
At the banquet at the world's end
The banquet at the world's end
The banquet at the world's end

[Verse 3]
Say the beautiful people
(The poor are coming)
"We'll live with the lights out"
(The lame are running)
"Leave us alone now
(The blind are seeing)
Because Hell feels like home now"
(The dead are breathing)
Meanwhile

[Verse 1]
The poor are coming, the lame are running
In their sleazy clothes and orthopedic shoes
There's a harelip spokesman shouting out the news

[Chorus]
"Come to the banquet at the world's end!"
"Come to the banquet at the world's end!"
"Come to the banquet at the world's end!"
