Congratulations by MGMT

Dead in the water
It's not a paid vacation
The sons and daughters
Of city officials attend demonstrations
It's hardly a sink or swim
When all is well if the ticket sells

Out with a whimper
It's not a blaze of glory
You look down from your temple
As people endeavor to make it a story
And chisel a marble word
But all is (1)________ if it's never heard

But I've got someone to (2)________ reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my (3)__________ and draw my plans
So I can't tell what's really there
And all I need's a great big:
Congratulations

I'll keep your dreams
You pay attention for me
As strange as it seems
I'd rather dissolve (4)________ have you ignore me
The ground may be moving fast
But I tied my boots to a (5)____________ mast

The difference is clear
You (6)__________ it in (7)________ cauldron
Rust and veneer
Dusk and dawn Steinways and Baldwins
You start with a simple stock of all the waste
And salt to taste

But damn my luck and (8)________ these friends
That keep on combing back (9)__________ smiles
I save my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my arms and (10)________ up:
Congratulations
