His Kingly Cave Lyrics - Frank Black And The Catholics

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
