Congratulations by MGMT
Dead in the water
It's not a (1)________ vacation
The (2)________ and daughters
Of city (3)__________________ attend demonstrations
It's hardly a (4)________ or swim
When all is (5)________ if the ticket sells
Out with a whimper
It's not a blaze of glory
You look (6)________ (7)________ your temple
As people endeavor to (8)________ it a story
And chisel a (9)____________ word
But all is (10)________ if it's never heard
But I've got someone to (11)________ reports
That (12)________ me how my money's spent
To book my stays and (13)________ my plans
So I can't (14)________ what's really there
And all I need's a great big:
Congratulations
I'll keep your dreams
You pay attention for me
As (15)______________ as it seems
I'd rather dissolve (16)________ (17)________ you ignore me
The ground may be moving fast
But I tied my boots to a broken mast
The difference is clear
You (18)__________ it in your cauldron
Rust and veneer
Dusk and dawn (19)__________________ and Baldwins
You start with a (20)____________ stock of all the waste
And salt to taste
But (21)________ my luck and damn (22)__________ friends
That keep on combing (23)________ their smiles
I (24)________ my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay (25)________ the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my (26)________ and soak up:
