Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I hear the music, daylight disc
Three men in black said, "Don't report this"
Ascension and that's all they said
Sickness now, the hour of dread
[Verse 2]
All praise
He's found the awful truth, Balthazar
He's found the saucer news
[Verse 3]
Wait, there's more
[Verse 4]
I'm in fairy rings and tower beds
"Don't report this," three men said
Books by the blameless and by the dead
King in yellow, the queen in red
[Verse 5]
All praise
He's found the awful truth, Balthazar
He's found the saucer news
[Verse 6]
Dead leaves always give up motion
I no longer feel emotion
Where prophecy fails, the fallin' notion
Don't report this, agents of fortune
[Verse 7]
All praise
He's found the awful truth, Balthazar
He's found the saucer news
