Lyrics

Call all the ladies out

Calling all women to attention

They're in their finery

They are dressed elegantly

A hundred jewels on throats

A hundred jewels adorn their necks

A hundred jewels between teeth

A hundred jewels between their teeth

Now bring my boys in

Now introducing the male counterparts

Their skin in craters like the moon

Their skin marked with imperfections like the moon

The moon we love like a brother

Expressing deep affection for the moon

While he glows through the room

The moon's glow filling the room

Dancin' around the lies we tell

Dancing around the lies people tell

Dancin' around big eyes as well, ah

Dancing around deceitful eyes

Even the comatose

Even those in a state of unconsciousness

They don't dance and tell

They keep secrets when they dance


We live in cities you'll never see on-screen

Residing in cities not showcased in media

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Although not conventionally attractive, they control their environment

Livin' in ruins of a palace within my dreams

Living among the remains of a dreamlike palace

And you know we're on each other's team

Acknowledging mutual support

And you know we're on each other's team

Reiterating the theme of being on each other's side

We're on each other's team

Emphasizing the unity within the team


I'm kind of over gettin' told to throw my hands up in the air

Expressing fatigue with being instructed to surrender

So there

Asserting independence with a defiant "So there"

So all the cups got broke

Noting the broken cups

Shards beneath our feet

Sharp fragments beneath their feet

But it wasn't my fault

Denying responsibility for the broken items

And everyone's competing for a love they won't receive

Observing the competitive nature of seeking unreciprocated love

'Cause what this palace wants is release

Desiring liberation from the constraints of the palace


We live in cities you'll never see on-screen

Repeating the theme of living in undisclosed cities

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Acknowledging the unconventional beauty of their surroundings

Livin' in ruins of a palace within my dreams

Residing in the remnants of a dreamt palace

And you know we're on each other's team

Reaffirming the mutual support within the team

We're on each other's team

Reiterating the collaborative nature of their relationships

And you know we're on each other's team

Stressing the unity among team members

We're on each other's team

Emphasizing the collective identity of the team

And you know

Repeated emphasis on being on each other's team

And you know

-

And you know

-

And you know we're on each other's team

-

We're on each other's team

Final confirmation of the collective unity within the team
