GUIDED BY VOICES
"King Arthur The Red"

Cells are crazy in the head,
Needles buried in the red,
For the king, for the dread.

Animated freed, and fed
To be wed.

Violence, nature in the reigns
Fear the vest, move the chains
Tattoo priced by losses and gains

Inconstant and deceitful
It remains.

From the cradle to the ledge
Seven strokes from Heaven's edge
Breathe the clock at Arthur's hedge
