lyrics

The capstone is the same stone
As all the stones below it
It’s just on top, like a rich man, or a cop
And it doesn’t take a genius to know it.
The top of the ladder is high and narrow as an arrow
And the bottom is wide as a river
And we ought to push it down and stick it to those clowns
But you can’t ask a cold man not to shiver

I wanted to feel
The dead weight of the crown
When I put it on
it pushed me hard and
low down to the ground.

I wanted to feel
The dead weight of the crown
