All your precious souls

have been bought and sold

for bargain basement lows

to common criminals



So you are having visions

adverse flying conditions

overseas transmissions

to anyone who will listen



You're waiting for the drums to kick in

you want to free your earthbound limbs

I am gonna count to three

then you are leaving here with me



Are we wasting all our precious time?

chasing dollars chasing dimes

German English Japanese

all the sand in all the seas

it's all in place

it's all laid out

and as we speak it's going down

oh don't forget me

regretfully

here's the part that always gets me



You float across the room

your lips are in full bloom

petals fall from your mouth

have you found me out?



you've been here before

along the civil war

I'll wait religiously

don't forget that you came here with me



Are we wasting all our precious time?

chasing dollars chasing dimes

German English Japanese

all the sand in all the seas

it's all in place

it's all laid out

and as we speak it's going down

oh don't forget me

regretfully

here's the part that always gets me
