Rate The Queen Of Ur And The King Of Um
Artist : Wire Song : The queen of ur and the king of um Painted statues in underground streams With
invitations to the Pharoah's dream They stare at
themselves, there's a need to be seen Walking
mirrors in the Pharoah's harem And here they come
The queen of Ur And the king of Um Tainted
Matthews in car-key relations Gilt invitations to
the blue queen's ball They stare at themselves,
there's a need to be seen Talking pillars in the
blue queen's hall Fading tatoos of empty stations
Great expectations at Vince's loyal mince They
stare at each other, there's a need to be seen
Crack-head mirrors, licking the soiled mint
Olympic statues from terminal stations Sifting
invitations to the market floor Steering into the
future, it pays to be seen Polishing mirrors,
keeping the score A babbling gaggle, a scrabbling
rabble Fighting invitations to the emporor's
shilling They stare through themselves, there's
nothing to see Hand-picked recruits for ghostly
pursuit
