Lyrics
Find another songJust in time to catch the show you've already paid for
Just in time, the spectacle's about to begin
And everyone's here that matters
There's one little hitch, hope you forgive
The chattering monkeys, they broke in, creating some damage
It's really most unfortunate when they try to ruin perfection
And we've got highly trained young men to guarantee protection
To hell with all formalities, let's toast to mediocrity
'Cause we're the ones who safeguard all the keys to the palace
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
Just in time
The aliens are about to invade us
Time to ride
The freaks are forming their own brigade
But I don't know why they're trying, they promised
A splendid big parade that we find terrifying
Those chattering monkeys want to steal the spotlight from the circus
But if you don't mind, please, ignore them
They really have no purpose
To hell with all formalities, let's drink to mediocrity
'Cause we're the ones who are holding all the keys to the palace
It's time to take the circus down
And burn the palace to the ground
Take back the keys from the clowns
And raise your glass and toast the little monkeys
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
To better times, to better times, to better times
