His Kingly Cave Lyrics

He wants an altered state, inside the mansion walls

She says she?d rather wait, yeah, for evening to fall

But still the cap they eat and with a drink they chased

The ghost that called

They went to celebrate, they went to have a ball

Everyone gathered at the gates but it wasn?t good at all

The sky was turning gray, they laughed at their mistake

As their skin began to crawl

Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now

They closed the gates and the scene was set

Enter into his kingly cave

Don?t worry the leopards won?t bite you

Wipe that big tear away

See they got jumpsuits on the headless cast

And polished jewels under two inch glass

And bullet holes in Vernon?s room out back

Don?t worry the posse won?t shoot you

No more crying today

He?s tripping over graves, as the rain begins to fall

And finally they escape, when the shuttle bus is called

The mourners now abate as one begins to say

I scream, I scream for all

Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now

They closed the gates and the scene was set

Enter into his kingly cave

Don?t worry the leopards won?t bite you

Wipe that big tear away

See they got jumpsuits on the headless cast

And polished jewels under two inch glass

And bullet holes in Vernon?s room out back

Don?t worry the posse won?t shoot you

No more crying today

Hey, but it?s too late for to go back now

Too late for to go back now

Enter into his kingly cave

He wants an altered state, inside the mansion walls

She says she?d rather wait, yeah, for evening to fall

But still the cap they eat and with a drink they chased

The ghost that called

Yes, very nice
