Frank Black And The Catholics - His Kingly Cave Lyrics

He wants an altered state, inside the mansion walls
She says shed 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 wasnt good at all
The sky was turning gray, they laughed at their mistake
As their skin began to crawl

Hey, but its too late for to go back now
They closed the gates and the scene was set
Enter into his kingly cave
Dont worry the leopards wont 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 Vernons room out back
Dont worry the posse wont shoot you
No more crying today

Hes 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 its too late for to go back now
They closed the gates and the scene was set
Enter into his kingly cave
Dont worry the leopards wont 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 Vernons room out back
Dont worry the posse wont shoot you
No more crying today

Hey, but its 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 shed 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
