World Leader Pretend: Bang Theory

To conquer to your kingdom. And to savior every listless flight along

Okay, I was going to do a write up on Bang Theory, but got distracted by Tit for Tat, also by World Leader Pretend. This was the song that Roxie of New Music Tuesdays introduced me to, and it is a gorgeous song.

But as I said, I got distracted. So I ended up writing about Tit for Tat first, and now, need some time before, I come back to Bang Theory. So read my write up on "Tit for Tat". I'll probably come back and add more details later, but I see people are looking for the lyrics, so here are the lyrics for Bang Theory.

Lyrics

I'm ready
To conquer to your kingdom
And to savior every listless flight along

It's heady
I see your every move already
Your policy is more than steady, honey
Dipped and tripped alone

Kill all the last leaves
Stars are glistenin'
Who's pullin' strings for you now?
Who's got the money?
Who's got the money?
How long before this listless bliss tears?

Hear you bang on it
Hear I see your headlights
Now, you think it's funny
Girl, you ain't seen nothin' at all
But tripled lovin'
Boys seeing the zealous skies
Who's got the money?
Girl, I got your money

You're over
My lucky stars are going nova
That empty bottle left you sober, dear
With skiddish fear
It might not make itself clear
With vision
Comes this ambivalent decision

Should I stay?
Or should I go?
Let me burn out fire
All the stars of the night wait for me

Kill all the last leaves
Stars are glistenin'
Who's pullin' strings for you now?
Who's got the money?
Who's got the money?
How long before this listless bliss tears?

Hear you bang on it
Hear I see your headlights
Now, you think it's funny
Girl, you ain't seen nothin' at all
But tripled lovin'
Boys seeing the zealous skies
Who's got the money?
Girl, I got your money

So long, so hard, so far away
So long, so hard, so far away
