lyrics
Welcome.
Won't you come inside?
Oh i fear the passing year did not deserve you
By some devious design
Suddenly you're very near as I prefer you
Soaked and shivered from the rain
you have always been a delicate disaster
Fine in fire and of frame
me and you are overdue for fiendish laughter
(Chorus)
Oh dear, let me see those smokey eyes
You're a villainous thing and we can't have you living a lie Oh dear, let's remove those pretty clothes
You're a villainous thing and I don't think anyone knows
Waste no worry for the world
Let it be a tragedy of love and glory
while they wait by gates of pearl
we'll be building palaces in purgatory
(Chorus)
You’ll find no ever after here
It’s clear that isn’t what you came for
I’ll be your puckish puppeteer
On this delightful little detour

I found this album after DSiSM was used in Grimace shake tiktoks of all things. What a funny way to find the best Tally Hall album, even if they don't call themselves Tally Hall here. Bryant Taylor
