Did you hear about the flood back in '71?
Us rats remember was leaded clear by the Pied Piper
We would follow him near
We'd follow him far
His pain was concentrated into our hearts
Father, oh father
Holding up the aces high
A blazin' satellite
Crash and burn on a cinnamon cloud
On a cinnamon cloud
Crash and burn on a cinnamon cloud
High on a cinnamon cloud
After the flood, you know it was never the same
A burning candle deep inside was all that remained
All that remained
Our flame with notorious fame
Wilting from judgemental eyes
A lonely suicide
Crash and burn on a cinnamon cloud
On a cinnamon cloud
Crash and burn on a cinnamon cloud
