The Dear Hunter The Revival (Lyric Video)
[00:25.19] It took a little longer than we hoped,
[00:27.67] But it was worth it.
[00:30.17] You know, it takes a village to raise a scheme;
[00:33.68] To patch the holes of a mausoleum.
[00:37.42] Well, we’re packing in the patronage
[00:39.92] Like it's a lotto, and everybody wins.
[00:43.19] Now take a seat so the show can start,
[00:46.17] And will you welcome these works of art…
[00:49.67] Isn’t she beautiful? No?
[00:55.93] Maybe another one here could entertain… Yes?
[01:02.18] We swear that every minute's worth the wait.
[01:06.92] Hey! It's a cry you can’t contain;
[01:11.17] A release you couldn’t estimate,
[01:15.67] And the secret's safe as long as you pay.
[01:20.44] It's so good to be so bad.
[01:23.42] You can leave it when you walk away,
[01:28.17] And pretend you’ve washed your hands of it.
[01:44.42] Last call for the Sunday squaws,
[01:46.68] And there's no room left for the hem and haw.
[01:49.68] We’ll give a gift long overdue
[01:52.69] And make a sultan out of you.
[01:56.42] That’s right; any troglodyte
[01:58.91] Can have a life in the party as a socialite,
[02:02.17] Or if you’re looking to efface,
[02:05.19] You can retire without a trace…
[02:09.17] Don’t you bother with doubt.
[02:13.43] Hey! It's a cry you can’t contain;
[02:17.67] A release you couldn’t estimate,
[02:22.17] But the secret's safe as long as you pay.
[02:26.94] It's so good to be so bad!
[02:29.93] You can leave it when you walk away,
[02:34.67] And pretend you’ve washed your hands of it.
[02:40.81] Another candidate for giving her bruises.
[02:43.31] Another night that she’ll dissociate.
[02:46.57] Another man who thinks the rules don’t apply to him.
[03:13.06] Long was this road I’ve wandered,
[03:19.07] But short did my temperance live.
[03:25.57] Here I’ve helped him build a temple
[03:30.81] To deify this czar of sin.
[03:37.56] Now who to blame, but I for tying
[03:43.56] These knots so well at my wrists.
[03:49.06] The noose would surely find me
[03:53.06] If I’m too wily… but what of the life I’d live?
[04:01.81] The sale of a soul that falls
[04:07.57] As foolish as young Esau...
[04:14.06] It's better if I withdraw.
[04:23.56] Hey! It's a cry you can’t contain;
[04:27.80] A release you couldn’t estimate,
[04:32.31] But the secret's safe as long as you pay.
[04:37.06] It's so good to be so bad!
[04:40.06] You can leave it when you walk away,
[04:44.83] And pretend you’ve washed your hands of it.
