We're floating in a dBead town,

[Verse 1]

Oh no,

D# G#m B G#m F# B

Olympia said she loves me, Olympia said she needs me,

D# G#m B

But what about all the marquis,

No not them,

G#m F# B

Because they're all so

There's something pale underneath the beat,

A white innocence marked by lecherous men,

I thought I'd suffer in the city heat,

I thought I'd suffer now lets hope to begin again

[Pre-Chorus]

C#m

If they could see,

Modern Venus,

Tender and frail,

Hell she's nervous,

C#m

But she's the best in all of Paris,

At aching and breaking hearts

[Chorus]

And oh lord,

G#m

Is heaven such a fine thing,

We're floating in a dead town,

Hoping to find someone to be near,

And we'll fly away,

Holding onto something,

We're drifting in a dull sound,

Hoping to find someone who will hear

[Verse 2]

D# G#m B

But what about all the marquis,

No not them,

G#m F# B

Because they're all so autocratic

I can't invest with this currency,

D# G#m B

A blind diligence wrapped and bowed with a lie,

But still we stay for the company,

But still we stay cause we don't wanna ever die

[Pre-Chorus]
