Lyrics
Spotlight on center stage! It's all the rage, hear them cry! The unveiling of a Gemini Welcome to the arcade! Step right up, don't be afraid The beast is chained See the hate in his eyes! The awakening of Gemini Hear him howl, see him spit! Take a picture with the kids Oh, quit this bravado bullsh*t I am, again, the swan, the twin dragon! Too much of a good thing Has rendered you a pawn And issued me a queen All my rooks, all my knights! To the christening of Gemini What spoils will this evening bring? Little piggies run and hide From the majesty of Gemini So, I'll huff and I'll puff And I'll blow this house up Oh, I may have just done myself in I am, again I am, I am, I am, I am I am! I am the holy second coming I am! I am the very double crossing I am, and don't you ever forget that I am not one half, I am wholly intact What would that poor coward say If only he'd see "him" this way? Maybe he'd wake up, yeah Maybe he'd finally behave More like a man should behave Maybe less like a nun I swear he was stunted as a child Meanwhile, I was Stranded! Abandoned! I am, again, the swan, the twin dragon! Now that I've paid my dues I'm going to paint this bloody town Black and blue All the rage, hear them cry! It's the rampage of a Gemini Hear that whimper in the night? The swan song of a Gemini I've done deeds I could never repeat - skeletons History can be so strangling - skeletons All of our sins are rising again like skeletons Someone, please, I must be seeing things All these skeletons I've done deeds I could never repeat - skeletons Past mistakes climbing up from their graves - skeletons All of our sins are rising again like skeletons How could this be, dancing in front of me? Hello, skeleton Who could this be acting just like me? Hello, skeleton
