Laughing in a crown of jewels Numbness from a scepters wound Toss and turn, I spin and learn Catch yourself before you burn A joker's dance before the king Jangling beads, and silver rings Close your eyes and bare the sound Jumping up - falling down
Falling, falling, falling, falling down Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Royal rebels discover you Trust? you turn there is no truth And circle, circle, why are you scared Why a smile instead of tears I'm gulping smoke I fade away Figures floating down to lay I meet the joker and the thief The king and queen but - no relief
The king is in the counting house, (falling, falling, falling, falling down) Counting all his money (look yourself in the eye before you drown) The queen is in her parlor (falling, falling, falling, falling down) Eating bread and honey (look yourself in the eye before you drown)
I cross myself before I die And the leaping man, he asks me, why? Well your rhythm is off I reply Now you must dance the dance That you imply! Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round The higher the leap, I said The harder the ground!
