Up the Tower

[Verse 1] I gave him a cigarette So he opened up his head The man forever on the corner He called it his pre-vision:  Unhorse for me, dear sir The marble emperor Defenestrate the king [Verse 2] The howling waves of people Crashing through the first blockade The guards - they washed away They thundered up the stairwell Until they reached that golden door They knocked upon the golden door [Chorus 1] Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down Knock it down [Verse 3] The portraits in the hallway Look better smashed upon the floor Gaudy baubles - turned to dust The hatred he brewed within us Is now crashing loud upon his shore The vultures returned to roost [Bridge] What a lovely view Horizon looks like fire Open up the window Let the light in [Chorus 2] Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out Throw him out [Outro] What a lovely view From the window What a lovely dream
