Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The jewel, the prize looking into your eyes
Cool pools drown your mind
What else will you find?
[Verse 2]
I heard a rumor
It was just a rumor
I heard a rumor
What have you done to her?
[Verse 3]
Myriad lights
They said I'd be impressed
Arabian Knights
At your primitive best
[Verse 4]
A tourist oasis
Reflects in seedy sunshades
A monstrous oil tanker
It's wound bleeding in seas
[Verse 5]
I heard a rumor
What have you done to her?
I heard a rumor
What have you done to her?
[Verse 6]
Veiled behind screams
Kept as your baby machine
Whilst you conquer more orifices
Of boys, goats, and things
Ripped out sheeps' eyes
No forks or knives
[Verse 7]
Myriad lights
They said I'd be impressed
Arabian Knights
At your primitive best
[Verse 8]
I heard a rumor
(Heard a rumor)
What have you done to her?
I heard a rumor
(I heard a rumor)
What have you done to her?
I heard a rumor, a rumor, a rumor, a rumor
(Heard a rumor)
