Congratulations by MGMT

Dead in the water
It's not a paid vacation
The sons and daughters
Of (1)________ officials attend demonstrations
It's (2)____________ a sink or swim
When all is well if the (3)____________ sells

Out with a whimper
It's not a (4)__________ of glory
You (5)________ down (6)________ (7)________ temple
As (8)____________ endeavor to make it a story
And chisel a (9)____________ word
But all is lost if it's never heard

But I've got someone to make reports
That (10)________ me how my money's spent
To (11)________ my stays and draw my plans
So I can't tell what's (12)____________ 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 than (13)________ you ignore me
The ground may be (14)____________ fast
But I (15)________ my (16)__________ to a broken mast

The (17)____________________ is clear
You throw it in (18)________ 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 (19)________ and damn these friends
That (20)________ on (21)______________ back (22)__________ smiles
I save my (23)__________ with half-assed guilt
And lay (24)________ the (25)__________ upon the lawn
Spread my (26)________ and (27)________ up:
Congratulations
