The jewel, the prize

Looking into your eyes

Cool pools drown your mind

What else will you find

I heard a rumor -- it was just a rumor

I heard a rumor -- what have you done to her

Myriad lights -- they said I'd be impressed

Arabian Knights -- at your primitive best

A tourist oasis -- reflects in seedy sunshades

A monstrous oil tanker

Its wound bleeding in seas

I heard a rumor -- what have you done to her

I heard a rumor -- what have you done to her

Veiled behind screens

Kept as your baby machine

Whilst you conquer more orifices

Of boys, goats and things

Ripped out sheep's eyes -- no forks or knives

Myriad lights -- they said I'd be impressed

Arabian Knights -- at your primitive best
