Lyrics Majesty - The Panics

Majesty

Who needs advice from cardinals?
Who votes for Governor-Generals?
Who’ll offer those fellas amnesty?
Who’s been touched by Her Majesty?
Of contradicted history
Confusion by formality
Put into lists and categories
A marriage by authority
To the young eyes
Across the sea
Who live and return to sanctuary
Of defiant tales in stone
In a higher prayer alone
In the brightest chains of gold
In the furthest place from home
Of victory in the high seas
Of doing business with crazies
Of commentators, visionaries
Say who wore what in the A-list
Where there once was a slaughter
Statues of great explorers
A flag engraved in a gold plaque
One quarter Union Jack
To the young eyes
Across the sea
Who live and return to sanctuary
Of defiant tales in stone
In a higher prayer alone
In the brightest chains of gold
In the furthest place from home
Tales in stone, a prayer alone
The brightest chains of gold
A prayer alone
The furthest place from home
Of defiant tales in stone
In a higher prayer alone
In the brightest chains of gold
In the furthest place from home
