Lyrics

    All our monkeys have monkeys
    We drive our deathcrush diamond Jaguar limousines
    We're not fantastic motherfuckers,
    but we play them on TV
    It's A Dirty Word Reich,
    Say what you like.
    It's A Dirty Word Reich
    Say what you like.
    
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    
    The devils are girls with Van Gogh's missing ear
    You say what you want but filth is all that they hear
    And I've got the jigger
    To make all of you bigger, so
    "Ladies und Gentlemen...drop your pissroom bait
    And make sure you're not late, you tramps and lunatics."
    Here's A trick that's gonna make you
    Click.
    
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    
    It's a Dirty Word Reich,
    Say what you like.
    It's A Dirty Word Reich,
    Say what you like.
    
    So my Bon Mots, Hit-boy Tommy Trons, Rowdy rowdies,
    Honey-fingered Goodbye Dolls:
    "Hellzapoppin, open your Third Nostril,
    Put on your black face and your god is gone."
    
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    We're the LOW ART GLOOMINATI
    And we aim to depress
    The SCABARET SACRILEGENDS
    This is the Golden Age of Grotesque
    We sing: La la la la lala la
    We sing: la lal la la la
    La la la la lala la
    We sing: La la la la la
