I will not talk of dead men's rooms and tombs
I will not talk of dead men's rooms and tombs
Oh, they always bother me
Oh, they always bother me
But then ride over every Roy and Dale
But then ride over every Roy and Dale
Yes, I know you tell a pink Stainless tail
Yes, I know you tell a pink stainless tale


The first stroke of twelve sounds like exactly what
The first stroke of twelve sounds like exactly what
Ah, two rodents sneaking through a–a trapdoor shut
Two rodents sneaking through a — a trapdoor shut
And though nothing will ever be quite like the Holy Grail
And though nothing will ever be quite like the Holy Grail
I know that you will always tell a pink stainless tail
I know that you will always tell a pink stainless tale


Red days follow red and green, green
Red days follow red and green, green
And sometimes it makes me think of you as mother queen
Sometimes it makes me think of you as Mother Queen
And I sit and I wait for all my mail
And I sit and I wait for all my mail
Hearing you repeat the pink stainless tail
Hearing you repeat the pink stainless tale


Seven guests are quiet now, and now not half so much
Seven guests are quiet now, and none are half so much
The only thing that I can think is how it feels to touch
The only thing that I can think is how it feels to touch
Your creamy self as you continue without fail (without fail)
Your creamy self as you continue without fail, in that veil
You speak soft of a black pink stainless tail
You speak soft of a black pink stainless tail

Lyrics

I will not talk of dead men's rooms and tombs Oh, they always bother me But then ride over every Roy and Dale Yes, I know you tell a pink stainless tale

The first stroke of twelve sounds like exactly what Two rodents sneaking through a — a trapdoor shut And though nothing will ever be quite like the Holy Grail I know that you will always tell a pink stainless tale

Red days follow red and green, green Sometimes it makes me think of you as Mother Queen And I sit and I wait for all my mail Hearing you repeat the pink stainless tale

Seven guests are quiet now, and none are half so much The only thing that I can think is how it feels to touch Your creamy self as you continue without fail, in that veil You speak soft of a black pink stainless tail
