lyrics

Battle of wits, battle of wills
Battle of pitfalls, battle of pills
Pitfalls of power, what color rulers do
And who'd ever like
Somebody like you

Filth and shadows, jeweler's gold
I wanna be like you when I get old
I wanna walk the walk and talk the talk
I wanna live under a pretty rock

Pedantic, proud, and sometimes snappy
Say the words that make me happy
Make a list, a closing fist
Of things to say and people to kiss

Pick a side, pick a side
Fearful silence or foolish pride
I have better knowledge for a song
But disaster strikes should I be wrong
And not belong

Filth and shadows, jeweler's gold
I wanna think like you when I get old
I wanna walk the walk and talk the talk
I wanna live over a pretty frock

Making references that spread confusion
What's the cost of my allusion
What's the worst that they could do
"They," somehowe including you

Quoting battles, don't you like
Why I say it gets me every time
Doesn't knightly cruelty distract affectations
Don't you know what it is I'm saying

Filth and shadows, jeweler's gold
I wanna be like you when I get old
I wanna walk the walk and talk the talk
I wanna live under a pretty rock

Battle of wits, battle of wills
It's a battle of pitfalls, a battle of pills
Pitfalls of power, what color rulers do
And who'd ever like
Someone who likes you
