lyrics

Now see the ballerina dressed in gold,
and frozen boys hang on the limb of an oak.
Shade their eyes and observe while spreading toast
with sauce made from a fat bird.
And take an oath
that “we will tacitly go after
what we are entitled to have and hold.”
Even if some have to get knocked off in the process,
all agree “we want this!”
and grow a little colder inside our coats.
But be careful coming down,
barks tends to scrape and poke,
make your palms bleed worse than gym ropes.
Make your palms bleed worse than gym ropes!

All on account of the ballerina dressed in gold,
frozen boys hang on the limb of an oak.
Shade their eyes and observe while spreading toast
with sauce made from a fat bird,
and take an oath.
