(A song for all you readers! Think in the genre of soft rock.)
Looking at this organization
Got some kind of growing temptation
That I just can't get outta my mind
Smothered in flowers and gold, you see
It's enough to drive a person crazy
I want to turn it upside down
Smash the drawers into the ground
Tear the paintings from their frames
And swing like a siamang from the drapes
Living in paradise
Isn't what it seems
I only have nightmares
Instead of sweet dreams
Smothered in fine silk and filigree
It's enough to drive a person crazy
I want to turn it upside down
Smash the drawers into the ground
Tear the paintings from their frames
And swing like a siamang from the drapes
What if I lived in a barren room
Full of nothing but dust and gloom?
It'd be so peaceful compared to here
Gilded and bejeweled beyond compare
Smothered in pearls and golden honey
It's enough to drive a person crazy
I swear I just want it gone
Tear the glamor from the walls
Rip the inheritance from my flesh
And the artwork from the halls
I wanna turn it upside down
Just upside down
And throw it all around
Upside down
Ooooh
I want to turn it upside down
Smash the drawers into the ground
Tear the paintings from their frames
And swing like a siamang from the drapes
