Congratulations by MGMT

Dead in the water
It's not a paid vacation
The (1)________ and daughters
Of city officials (2)____________ 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 (3)____________ a (4)____________ word
But all is lost if it's never heard

But I've got someone to make reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my (5)__________ 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 (6)________ have you (7)____________ me
The ground may be moving fast
But I tied my boots to a broken mast

The difference is clear
You throw it in your cauldron
Rust and veneer
Dusk and (8)________ Steinways and Baldwins
You start with a simple stock of all the waste
And salt to taste

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