The Queen Of Ur And The King Of Um lyrics
Painted statues in underground streamsWith invitations to the Pharoah's dreamThey stare at themselves, there's a need to be seenWalking mirrors in the Pharoah's haremAnd here they comeThe queen of UrAnd the king of UmTainted Matthews in car-key relationsGilt invitations to the blue queen's ballThey stare at themselves, there's a need to be seenTalking pillars in the blue queen's hallFading tatoos of empty stationsGreat expectations at Vince's loyal minceThey stare at each other, there's a need to be seenCrack-head mirrors, licking the soiled mintOlympic statues from terminal stationsSifting invitations to the market floorSteering into the future, it pays to be seenPolishing mirrors, keeping the scoreA babbling gaggle, a scrabbling rabbleFighting invitations to the emporor's shillingThey stare through themselves, there's nothing to seeHand-picked recruits for ghostly pursuit
