[Intro]
(Sweet, breathy laughter)
Yeah, yeah
It’s a secret party
And you’re invited!
One, two... pick the lock.
[Verse 1]
Sparkle in the water, glowing in the deep
I see the city swaying while the giant is asleep
Put on your neon ribbons, paint your face in gold
We’re dancing to a rhythm that is billion winters old
Can’t you feel the pressure? It’s a heavy kind of love
Something’s waking underneath, something’s watching from above
Just a little shimmy, just a little ritual
Nothing out of ordinary, strictly habitual!
[Pre-Chorus]
The stars are in a line, looking oh so pretty
A shadow’s stretching out across the neon city
Don’t look behind the curtain, don’t look into the black
Once you hear the calling, there is no turning back!
[Chorus]
Oh! Phantasmagoria, dancing in the rain
Whisper to the Master, let him take away the pain
It’s a Funky-Wunky-Ruin, spinning in the dark
The Great One’s in the garden and he’s looking for a spark!
Hands up to the ceiling, let the sky crack wide
There’s nowhere left to run and there’s nowhere left to hide!
(Pop! Pop! Sweet destruction!)
[Verse 2]
Bubbles in my soda, static on the screen
I’m the prettiest disciple that you’ve ever seen
Geometric patterns on the disco floor
We don't need a key because we’re tearing down the door
Ia! Ia! Shake it to the left
Love is just a sacrifice, a beautiful theft!
[Bridge]
(Tempo slows, bass gets grittier)
The eye is opening...
The color out of space is pink...
Don't think...
Just sink...
(Sudden upbeat return)
Yay!
[Chorus]
Oh! Phantasmagoria, dancing in the rain
Whisper to the Master, let him take away the pain
It’s a Funky-Wunky-Ruin, spinning in the dark
The Great One’s in the garden and he’s looking for a spark!
Hands up to the ceiling, let the sky crack wide
There’s nowhere left to run and there’s nowhere left to hide!
[Outro]
The abyss is looking back, baby!
(Giggle)
Fhtagn!
Sweet dreams in the sunken city...
(Fade out with upbeat synth stabs)
