An invitation
To an evening for the recently vague
In the grey room
Everyone is fashionably late
We dance by standing still
Everybody face the wall
Come and join us if you will
Turn the lights out

Dress up in anger
Wrap all your troubles in chains
Out of focus
We’ll never see you again
We dance by standing still
Everybody face the wall
Come and join us if you will
Turn the lights out

We spike the punch
With tincture of could have been
Are you having a good time tonight?
Step over the bodies
And enter the cocktail party
We dance by standing still
Everybody face the wall
Come and join us if you will
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
Step over the bodies
Turn the lights out
