"Story Of The End" lyrics

Well, the choir went to pieces
When the jester cut the lights
Something in the rafters whispered
"Everything's alright"
So the king lined up the prophets
And as each fell over dead
The queen sang the beginning to
The story of the end

Snow White gets trashed
And Rose Red does blow
While they play a song you used to know
The neon sign
Reads "this is fine"
Begins to glow

But just before you quite remember
Cain kills Romeo

And the choir went to pieces
When the jester cut the lights
Something in the rafters whispered
"Everything's alright"
So the king lined up the prophets
And as each fell over dead
The queen sang the beginning to
The story of the end

Jesus in drag
Dances with War
And you swear you've seen this scene before
While beauty queens
Paint guillotines
God knows what for

And as the king just swings on puppet strings
The cops bust through the door

And the choir went to pieces
When the jester cut the lights
Something in the rafters whispered
"Everything's alright"
So the king lined up the prophets
And as each fell over dead
The queen sang the beginning to
The story of the end

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
Run!

La la la la
La la la la
(La la la la)
