He called it his pre-vision:                   
 
Unhorse for me, dear sir
The marble emperor
Defenestrate the king
 
The howling waves of people
Crashing through the first blockade
The guards - they washed away
 
They thundered up the stairwell
Until they reached that golden door
They knocked upon the golden door
 
 
[Chorus]

Gaudy baubles - turned to dust

E|----------------------------------------------------|                            
 
The hatred he brewed within us
Is now crashing loud upon his shore
The vultures returned to roost
