    Through all of the highways, the byways i've travelled
    Through all of the sidestreets and alleys of sin
    Through all that's been heard nothing sinks quite as low
    As the prominent statements of prominent men

    Prominent men tell prominent stories
    Prominent men tell prominent lies
    Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
    Prominent men will tear out your eyes

    The streets that have life with the cat's underbelly
    Aligned with their tracks of a thousand good-byes
    A poor woman screams with the heat of disaster
    As the prominent men sit and strengthen their ties

    Oh, the prominent girls of the prominent people
    Make prominent dresses and prominent hair
    Oh, their prominent wealth and their eyes blazed with shadow
    The prominent horrors with the ghost millionaire

    The shiny stained window now cracked at sunset
    They shiny red dawn of the heart soon must fall
    This simply occurred at the seat of the cauldron
    Those prominent men hadn't been there at all

    Prominent men tell prominent stories
    Prominent men tell prominent lies
    Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
    Prominent men will tear out your eyes

    Oh, the prominent child of these prominent people
    Seeks prominent schools with the finery of age
    With a prominent pink of a tasteless red orchid
    The prominent men casts a prominent heir

    The child of the agent walks barefoot upon grass
    He screams with a power that terror's green eyes
    His knife harshly glistening, stabs noways and always
    But those prominent men in nowhere in sight

    Prominent men tell prominent stories
    Prominent men tell prominent lies
    Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
    Prominent men will tear out your eyes
