The Royal We by The Old Ceremony Lyrics

The royal we decided to declare the hard a day
For flooding down the Amazon and shooting disks of clay
Yeah the royal we is much better now
We've almost found our minds
Though we are still not amused by the emptiness sometimes
The royal we is hardly ever known to think of you
And ivy covers up our home obscuring it from view
Living in a splendid isolation we've become a custom too
We take our meals and read our books
In solitude sublime
Not like the days when you would make
Us laugh to rewound crime
Yeah the royal we never lacks for company nor care
For though our house is empty now
We are always there
The royal we is hardly ever known to think of you
And ivy covers up our home obscuring it from view
Living in a splendid isolation we've become a custom too
Oh what the hell I pretend
Who are we trying to kid
I never got your letter
Are you sure you mailed it
No I never got your letter
Are you sure you mailed it
