Gilded Lily Songtext / Lyric

Well I've been wearing a Gilded Lily

Cunningly carved in a manner frilly

To my design it was created

No deviation was tolerated



My Gilded Lily he think he funny

My Gilded Lily he worth cash money

My Gilded Lily he made me a smarty

I wore my Lily to all the right party, go



I was the envy of all the horde

And I proclaimed myself overlord

My Gilded Lily gives all this and more

I puked my guts all over the floor



I found the entertainment banal, so

Thru trenches of flesh we carved a canal

Lead harlequin then drew his last

He held a bejeweled theatrical mask






The door heaved and then exploded

We split the bill and drove home loaded

And when we got there the paint was peeling

We rose on Jell-o cubes to the ceiling



I wear the Lily

Gaily festooned in a manner silly

Draped in apparel

I bathe in the smell



I gild the Lily

Adroitly crafted yet willy nilly

I wear the Lily

When I party with Milli Vanilli



And soon the pleasure barges rolled with the sun

Pleasantly bloated, we mingled as one

Amidst debris of debauchery

I looked for Lily and just found me



And all the while Gilded Lily faded

Although it was the best I'd created

But Gilded Lily was still in place

It made a mockery of my face



And delivered to us a surprise

The hulking mass of what we despised

Which lurched away as we moved to snuff it

And we delivered a princely buffet



Soon the continent split asunder

And all the radios blared to the blunder

My Gilded Lily expanded while spinning

That's when I realized we were winning



And then we were gone

Fondly clutching our raging piss-ons

We piled up, peeled out, veered off, lashed out
