Until Olympius Returns |
| Go through the motions |
| Every day out in the square |
| Listen for the hidden rhythms on the air |
| Nod in agreement when the tyrant holds court |
| Look for a beacon from the north |
| Protect yourself |
| Vouch for every member of the team |
| This is just a momentary ripple in the stream |
| Join in the rebuilding |
| Sing loudly at your labor |
| Make friends with the new guys |
| Be nice to your neighbor |
| Profess keen interest in the welfare of the state |
| Taste everything they feed you |
| Say it tastes real great |
| Spit it down your sleeve |
| Every time you get the chance |
| This is just a brief improvisation in the dance |
| Raise up the columns |
| Take the statues down |
| Praise the columns |
| Spread the word around town |
| Behold the temple where the old one stood |
| Is it not a thing of beauty |
| Don’t it make you feel good |
| Is it not a big improvement on the way things used to be |
| Is it not a stately beacon for the whole world to see |
| We will be right here |
| On the day it finally burns |
| Everybody hold a spot |
| Until Olympius returns |
| Yeah! |
