Absinthe House

Do you want to know what sinful bliss is?
Follow me to the Absinthe House
Do you want to drown in liquid kisses?
Follow me to the Absinthe House
The fairy is waiting, tempting and gleeful
in a glass of sparkling emerald evil
Follow me to a world of dreams and wishes

Do you want to dance on empty air?
Come with me to the Absinthe House
Do you want to swim in an unworldly fair?
Come with me to the Absinthe House
There's a quiet buzz that sings of upheaval
in a sparkling glass of emerald evil
Come with me, now, we're almost there

In the heart of a dark underworld city
where Madness and Bizarre are dieties
they prey on wishes and despondency
under skies of blood and viridity
And she waits for you at the end of your labyrinth
The green fairy temptress of that
wicked absinthe!

Can you now feel the fire your being craves?
Step with me into the Absinthe House
Can you taste the desire to become its slave?
Step with me into the Absinthe House
She's waiting for you to be redeemed
in that glittering glass of Bohemian dream
Ride with me, stranger, on that glowing green wave

So will you come inside the Elephant's Belly?
Here we are in the Absinthe House
Vie with the vestige of your own sad memories
Here we are in the Absinthe House
Here your troubles vaporize
in to the green fairy's absinthe eyes
Come now, stranger, and play with me

We all here are one the same;
Absinthe tears and emerald rain
The fairy's blood sears through our veins
Absinthe spheres and emerald planes

Fold in to me sweet intoxication
I can be your lover and inspiration
Swirl down deep in that jade illumination
That glittering glass of Bohemian salvation
Hurry, now, she chases through your labyrinth!
That green fairy temptress of that
wicked absinthe!
