Don't go crazy my guitar begs
As it sits in the corner, destroying the universe
Don't go crazy the fortune-telling parrot screams
From the top of a tower of terminal brain tumors
Now I'm in a picture, of Tahiti
And even the air, is an evil hallucination
I'm hyperventilating
I can't sleep I can't talk
The subway drone shouts: "Don't go crazy!"
Vagabond ballroom, is where I'm from!
Prism rain drizzles on my tongue
Vagabond ballroom, is my home!
Sixteen floors, 7000 rooms
Vagabond ballroom (x2)
Vagabond ballroom we're dancing
On the floor slowly shifting like skin
Don't go crazy screams the typewriter
He takes you to the roof, and shows you the nights anatomy
Don't go crazy croon shoplifters of the world
There's gonna be good times, just around the corner
Now I'm sitting in the sober skull of a preist
And even his breath is an evil hallucination
I'm hyperventilating
I can't sleep I can't talk
The telephone shouts: "Don't go crazy!"
Vagabond Ballroom, is where I'm from!
Phantoms in the aquarium
Vagabond Ballroom, is my home
A thousand moons hang from the rafters
Vagabond Ballroom (x2)
Vagabond Ballroom we're dancing
The caberet is incandescent
Open your eyes, the stars are so massive
Don't you feel small under the sheer vastness?
Open your eyes look at all the dark matter
How could anything you do possibly matter?
Open your eyes it's the Vagabond ballroom
Jellyfish lightning up dark swimming pools
Opera singers riding child faced gulls
And windows that look out of all the world's raging
Open your eyes there's a garden of lilies
Performing a play about your favorite memories
Aviary's full of hologram hawks
We'll stay up all night and talk talk talk
Vagabond Ballroom! (x4)
Is where I'm from!
Paintings speak in the museum
Vagabond Ballroom is where I'm from
Cobra's grow beneath the glass floor
Vagabond Ballroom (x2)
Vagabond Ballroom, we're dancing
No more time for hesitating
