Dragon's Lair

I'm sorry that I'm late, I went blind I got confetti in my eyes I was held up at yesterday's parties I was needed on the Congo line But my dear, oh, my dear I'd like to fight the good fight for another couple of years Because to say the war is over is to say you are a widow You're not a widow yet You're not a widow yet You're not a widow yet You're not a widow yet So this one's for the critics and their disappointed mothers For the cupid and the hunter shooting arrows at each other Ain't no such thing as a saint, ain't no such thing as a sinner There's a swan among the pigeons of Barcelona's floor There's a Samson with Delilahs lining up outside the door If you are sharpening your scissors, I am sharpening my scissors, and I am sharpening my sword So you can take me to the dragon's lair or you can take me to Rapunzel's windowsill Either way it is time for a bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill I see your face when I close my eyes I see the muscles in your legs from the way you always rise To the occasion of catching things that fall Like the statuettes on pedestals I tend to build too tall But I have navigated Iceland (I have navigated Iceland) I laid my claim on Portugal (I laid my claim on Portugal) I have seen into the wasteland (I have seen into the wasteland) Of the future (of the future) Of the future of us all I kicked up a whole country of dead, dead leaves last fall I kicked up a whole country of dead, dead leaves last fall Dead leaves Dead leaves Dead leaves Dead leaves Seen from the back of a train (Seen from the back of a train) I rode away from your station (I rode away from your station) They drifted in the air (They drifted in the air) Like memoirs of old conversations (Like memoirs of old conversations) Sprung from a leather case (Sprung from a leather case) You opened in the wind (You opened in the wind) To watch the papers chase each other (To watch the papers chase each other) Into oblivion You're such a champion You're such a champion I hide behind your sun You are the champion And you're such a champion (You're such a champion) And you're such a champion (You're such a champion) I hide behind your sun (I hide behind your sun) You are the champion (You are the champion) And you're such a champion (You're such a champion) And you're such a champion (You're such a champion) I hide behind your sun (I hide behind your sun) You are the champion (You are the champion) So you can take me to the dragon's lair or you can take me to Rapunzel's windowsill Either way it is time, it is time for a bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill, kill, kill, kill, kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill A bigger kind of kill, kill, kill, kill, kill
