Let's Be Civilized

There's a groom and a bride in my mind
 Sending postcards and memories
 There's a wicked witch
 Suicide, cigarettes and climbing trees
 There's a mountain and a valley and a little girl
 Who is something sweet
 She's a fortune-teller Sally
 I'm a drunken clown, who always falls asleep
 I was faking death to wake up new
 'Cause I was too afraid to stand in my shoes
 I called you on the telephone
 Were you home?
 It didn't sound like you
 Set me up another shot
 Close the windows, stop the clock
 Let's sing Grecian lullabies
 I'm Dionysus in disguise
 No one's gonna rescue you,
 'Cause no one has a fucking clue
 So let's be civilized
 Let's say 'I love you'
 There's a ghost in my seat kissing girls
 And using up my stolen charm
 He said he'll give it back, he was once an honest man
 Before he bought the farm
 I was seething with an impious rage
 'Cause I was stuck inside a poemless page
 I was conquered like the Byzantine on Halloween
 And woke up in a cage
 Set me up another shot
 Close the windows, stop the clock
 Let's sing Grecian lullabies
 I'm Dionysus in disguise
 No one's gonna rescue you,
 'Cause no one has a fucking clue
 So let's be civilized
 Let's say 'I love you'
 Set me up another shot
 Close the windows, stop the clock
 Let's sing Grecian lullabies
 I'm Dionysus in disguise
 No one's gonna rescue you,
 'Cause no one has a fucking clue
 So let's be civilized
 Not so petrified
 Let's be civilized
 Let's say 'I love you'
