"Vainglorious" lyrics

"Vainglorious"

Now gather round, you're all invited
Your past and present just alighted
Every hue, the broken prisms
And the smallest of organisms

Vainglorious
Vainglorious
Vainglorious

Now touch the man and catch the women
Yeah, some have sank and some are swimming
Their heads in hands and hands on faces
History fails and time erases

Vainglorious
Vainglorious

You're invited one and all
Here's how to show them, ten foot tall
Without a body, just a word
You're never seen, but man you're heard

Now gather round, ye humble bums
Russian vodka, Cuban rums
Raise a glass, say "Iechyd da"
To your health and blah, blah, blah

Vainglorious
Vainglorious
Vainglorious
Vainglorious
