A Spectacle in Red -

Through fires in bloom and wretched bite

scale giants till the vultures fly beneath

This city was built upside down

Branded in time a bow to the maiden of whisper’s design

and for you the guest of honor a grain of salt

with the wings of colored lure

the audience will cheer never wasting the sights

tongues will seduce the ears

by licks that promise dreams delight

A test to arms

displayed for starving eyes

Has the initiation appeased your fancy?

Soil bound the obstacles decorating red carpets

that fell beneath to tricks of the trade

Build!

shouts the quiet for the old will awake and reclaim

before the wombs who hath no fury

A foul stench spoil wolves and harlots alike

spectate the feast at thy feet

the audience cheers never wasting the sights

A test to arms

displayed for starving eyes

A test to arms

displayed for starving eyes

More they demand

the exhibition is not enough

to rule the city supreme one must keep the eyes on their toes

Do we have your attention now?

A spectacle in red I’ll paint two coats.

A spectacle in red I’ll paint two coats

A spectacle in red I’ll paint two coats.

Branded in time a bow to the maiden of whisper’s design

and for you the guest of honor a grain of salt

with the wings of colored lure

the audience will cheer never wasting the sights

tongues will seduce the ears

by licks that promise dreams delight.
