Tonight we are victorious
Champagne pouring over us
All my friends were glorious
Tonight we are victorious
Oh-oh-oh, victorious
Oh-oh-oh
Double bubble disco queen headed to the guillotine
Skin as cool as Steve McQueen, let me be your killer king
It hurts until it stops, we will love until it’s not
I’m a killing spree in white, eyes like broken Christmas lights
My touch is black and poisonous
And nothing like my punch-drunk kiss
I know you need it, do you feel it?
Drink the water, drink the wine
Oh we gotta turn up the crazy
Livin’ like a washed up celebrity
Shooting fireworks like it’s the Fourth of July
Until we feel alright
Until we feel alright
I’m like a scarf trick, it’s all up the sleeve
I taste like magic, waves that swallow quick and deep
Throw the bait, catch the shark, bleed the water red
Fifty words for murder and I’m every one of them
My touch is black and poisonous
And nothing like my punch-drunk kiss
I know you need it, do you feel it?
Drink the water, drink the wine
Oh we gotta turn up the crazy
Livin’ like a washed up celebrity
Shooting fireworks like it’s the Fourth of July
Tonight we are victorious
Champagne pouring over us
All my friends were glorious
Tonight we are victorious
Tonight we are victorious
Champagne pouring over us
All my friends were glorious
Tonight we are victorious
Oh we gotta turn up the crazy
Livin’ like a washed up celebrity
Shooting fireworks like it’s the Fourth of July
Until we feel alright
Until we feel alright
Tonight we are victorious
Champagne pouring over us
All my friends were glorious
Tonight we are victorious

PLEASE, LEAVE ALL OVER COATS, CANES AND TOP HATS WITH THE DOORMAN
AND FROM THAT MOMENT, YOU'LL BE OUT OF PLACE AND UNDERDRESSED
I'M WRECKING THIS EVENING ALREADY AND LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT
RUINING THIS BANQUET FOR THE MILDLY INSPIRING AND?
PLEASE, LEAVE ALL OVER COATS, CANES AND TOP HATS WITH THE DOORMAN
AND FROM THAT MOMENT, YOU'LL BE OUT OF PLACE AND UNDERDRESSED
I'M WRECKING THIS EVENING ALREADY AND LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT
RUINING THIS BANQUET FOR THE MILDLY INSPIRING AND?
WHEN YOU'RE IN BLACK SLACKS WITH ACCENTUATING, OFF-WHITE PIN-STRIPES?
EVERYTHING GOES ACCORDING TO PLAN
I AM THE NEW CANCER, NEVER LOOKED BETTER YOU CAN'T STAND IT
BECAUSE YOU SAY SO UNDER YOUR BREATH
YOU'RE READING LIPS, WHEN DID HE GET ALL CONFIDENT?
HAVEN'T YOU HEARD THAT I'M THE NEW CANCER
NEVER LOOKED BETTER AND YOU CAN'T STAND IT
NEXT IS A TRIP TO THE LADIES ROOM IN VAIN
I BET YOU JUST CAN'T KEEP UP (KEEP UP) WITH THESE FASHIONISTAS
AND TONIGHT, TONIGHT YOU ARE THE WHISPERING CAMPAIGN
I BET TO THEM, YOUR NAME IS CHEAP AND THAT TO THEM YOU LOOK LIKE SHIT
TALK TO THE MIRROR, CHOKE BACK TEARS, AND KEEP TELLING YOURSELF,
I'M A DIVA
OH, AND THE SMOKES IN THAT CIGARETTE BOX ON TABLE,
THEY JUST SO HAPPEN TO BE LACED WITH NITROGLYCERIN
I AM THE NEW CANCER, NEVER LOOKED BETTER YOU CAN'T STAND IT
BECAUSE YOU SAY SO UNDER YOUR BREATH
YOU'RE READING LIPS, WHEN DID HE GET ALL CONFIDENT?
HAVEN'T YOU HEARD THAT I'M THE NEW CANCER
NEVER LOOKED BETTER AND YOU CAN'T STAND IT
HAVEN'T YOU HEARD THAT I'M THE NEW CANCER?
I'VE NEVER LOOKED BETTER AND YOU CAN'T STAND IT
HAVEN'T YOU HEARD THAT I'M THE NEW CANCER?
I'VE NEVER LOOKED BETTER AND YOU CAN'T STAND IT
AND I KNOW, AND I KNOW IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A NIGHT OUT
WITH NO ONE SIZING YOU UP
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO SURREPTITIOUS,
SO OF COURSE YOU'LL BE DISTRACTED WHEN I SPIKE THE PUNCH
AND I KNOW, AND I KNOW IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A NIGHT OUT
WITH NO ONE SIZING YOU UP
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO SURREPTITIOUS,
SO OF COURSE YOU'LL BE DISTRACTED WHEN I SPIKE THE PUNCH
AND I KNOW, AND I KNOW IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A NIGHT OUT
WITH NO ONE SIZING YOU UP
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO SURREPTITIOUS,
SO OF COURSE YOU'LL BE DISTRACTED WHEN I SPIKE THE PUNCH

HEAVEN KNOWS THAT I'M BORN TOO LATE
FOR THESE GHOSTS THAT I CHASE
WITH THESE DREAMS, I INFLATE, PAINTED SKIES IN MY BRAIN
EVERY DAY, I'M CARL SAGAN IN SPACE
TO ESCAPE THIS OLD WORLD, THIS OLD WORLD
SOME DAYS I LIE WIDE AWAKE 'TIL THE SUN HITS MY FACE
AND I FADE, ELEVATE FROM THE EARTH
FAR AWAY TO A PLACE WHERE I'M FREE FROM THE WEIGHT
THIS WHOLE WORLD, THIS WHOLE WORLD
I DON'T TRUST ANYTHING
OR ANYONE, BELOW THE SUN
I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING
AT ALL
I'M KING OF THE CLOUDS, OF THE CLOUDS
I GET LIFTED, I GET LIFTED
KING OF THE CLOUDS, OF THE CLOUDS
I GET LIFTED, I GET LIFTED
SOME ONLY LIVE TO DIE, I'M ALIVE TO FLY HIGHER
THAN ANGELS IN OUTFIELDS INSIDE OF MY MIND
I'M ASCENDIN' THESE LADDERS, I'M CLIMBIN', SAY GOODBYE
THIS OLD WORLD, THIS OLD WORLD
AND WHEN I FALL TO RISE WITH STARDUST IN MY EYES
IN THE BACKBONE OF NIGHT, I'M COMBUSTIBLE
DUST IN THE FIRE WHEN I CAN'T SLEEP, AWAKE, I'M TOO TIRED
THIS WHOLE WORLD, THIS WHOLE WORLD
I DON'T TRUST ANYTHING
OR ANYONE, BELOW THE SUN
I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING
AT ALL
I'M KING OF THE CLOUDS, OF THE CLOUDS
I GET LIFTED, I GET LIFTED
KING OF THE CLOUDS, OF THE CLOUDS
I GET LIFTED, I GET LIFTED
IMAGINATION, TAKE ME SOMEWHERE I DON'T KNOW
I'M LOST BUT I BETTER FIND IT ALONE
KING OF THE CLOUDS, OF THE CLOUDS
I GET LIFTED, I GET LIFTED
I KEEP SEARCHING
OH, I KEEP SEARCHING
I KEEP SEARCHING
