Gilded Lily Songtext
von GWAR

Well I′ve been wearing a Gilded Lily
Cunningly carved in a manner frilly
To my design it was created
No deviation was tolerated

My Gilded Lily he think he funny
My Gilded Lily he worth cash money
My Gilded Lily he made me a smarty
I wore my Lily to all the right party, go

I was the envy of all the horde
And I proclaimed myself overlord
My Gilded Lily gives all this and more
I puked my guts all over the floor

I found the entertainment banal, so
Thru trenches of flesh we carved a canal
Lead harlequin then drew his last
He held a bejeweled theatrical mask


The door heaved and then exploded
We split the bill and drove home loaded
And when we got there the paint was peeling
We rose on Jell-o cubes to the ceiling

I wear the Lily
Gaily festooned in a manner silly
Draped in apparel
I bathe in the smell

I gild the Lily
Adroitly crafted yet willy nilly
I wear the Lily
When I party with Milli Vanilli

And soon the pleasure barges rolled with the sun
Pleasantly bloated, we mingled as one
Amidst debris of debauchery
I looked for Lily and just found me

And all the while Gilded Lily faded
Although it was the best I'd created
But Gilded Lily was still in place
It made a mockery of my face


And delivered to us a surprise
The hulking mass of what we despised
Which lurched away as we moved to snuff it
And we delivered a princely buffet

Soon the continent split asunder
And all the radios blared to the blunder
My Gilded Lily expanded while spinning
That′s when I realized we were winning

And then we were gone
Fondly clutching our raging piss-ons
We piled up, peeled out, veered off, lashed out
