[Verse 1]
I never lie
To myself tonight
Rose-tinted eyes
Color my sorrow a shade of wine

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Bye-bye, black balloon
See you real soon
Wave bye-bye (Bye-bye)

[Chorus 1]
Oh, why you so sad? What have they done?
Forget those mindless baboons, they're off playing God
Copycats in cheap suits are playing it safe
While cannibals of bad news consume a parade

[Interlude]
Is it wonderful?
(Kalopsia)
(Kalopsia)
(Kalopsia)
(Kalopsia)
(Kalopsia)

[Verse 2]
Far, far from shore
The land of nightmares, gone forevermore
And I love you more
Than I can control


[Pre-Chorus 2]
I don't even try
Why would I?

[Chorus 2]
Oh, why the long face? You've got it all wrong
Forget the rat in the race, we'll choke chain them all
Fates favor the ones who help themselves
The rest feel the sting of the lash as they row (As they row)
The boat (The boat) to Hell (To Hell)

[Outro]
Row
