IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT LYRICS

1. Chump Change

Towering altars of gluttony
Violators of heavens divide
And here we all stand
Begging for autonomy

Craving for decency
Everything is for sale
We live in the applause of the gods
Gasping for culture
Everyone is for sale

Gaze upon the borzois
Hunting in the gilt bronze
And gleaming black marble
You will never belong

Mother of exiles
New Colossus
Capital sensation
Neuer Kolos
For a small fee
НОВОЙ КОЛОС
Welcome to New York
La meme chose. The same Hell.

Woe!
Spare us O Lightning god
We came for more
And stayed for less
A brave new world
The same old suffering

Again misery prospers
O, what a world.

2. Metrovertigo

View the new age, society strides
For all to see, make great waves
Higher praise, our ancient offering
Temples to the old dead gods

Move forward
They aren't your kind
Cyclical progress
A true blessing

Build build! Now now!
Our gift to 'master' Baal
Plutocracy refined

Babylonia! The purpose
As man tames the universe
Elevate! Mediocrity
Four thousand years
Of metrovertigo

Radio, auto, innovate!
The snake eats its own tail
So little to share
Yet shares are ... the teachings

Build build! Now now!
Our gift to 'master' Baal
Plutocracy defined
Metrovertigo

3. Tower of Glory, City of Shame

Gemini, show up through the ages
In similar trends with fantastic vision - fantastic image

We will build the great work of spectacular proportion
And you will love it time and time again
Generational gap, unrealized potential
Forgotten despair, heretics observe

All is grand, all is great
Believe me now, above all else
All is grand, all is good
Not to woe, prevail you shall

Eleven hours of pure bliss
Filthiest of inner workings
To elevate all points of multiplicity
Why none could be greater than ritual offering
A grand hermitage illuminates above the Battery
New Formalist, gone for all time

All is great, all is grand
The good souls, that burn midair

Listen to the universe, it speaks many tongues
Comprehend delusion, towering hypocrisy

Hourglass yields, perceptive perspective
Lies 'til truths, truths 'til lies

Illusory grandeur
Look up, look up!
Twins of Babylon
Perish on the shoulders of disgrace

Eagle II of Columbia,
And in a flash you shall see the light

4. Merkurius Gilded

Currency flows through electric streets,
Feeding the avenues opportunity
Visionaries plans
Perched aloft the mechanized unity

Look down towards Pershing Square
Time is told with golden arms

Blue knights on pale horses
Directing the river, the river of souls
Liquidity is the aim
Propaganda preserved in scrolls

Equity of flesh reserves
Heads down, march to the underworld

Merkurius Gilded
Beneficial is he to himself
Merkurius Gilded
Man is the artist of his fortune
Apex of commerce
Electric current itself

Times change: agenda remains
Shaping the river's future by knight
And bury the free minds with light
Forty Second Street, whore of gains

This golden valve is our eternal tomb
Imperator Caduceus Aeternum

5. Death on a Highway

You can't repeat the past
Obey your narrator
The nameless lord of infrastructure
The city of the tomorrow
Requires sacrifice today

Buy now and shape the land
Built in honor of holy engine
Man is the motor spirit
Eager to combust

Buy now and shape the land
Life is profit, death is liquid
Babylon to Manhattan
Life is profit, death is liquid

A great causeway
From the master
Lay down your souls
Greatness awaits!

Rebuilt so often and often so well
The machine is satisfied, for now

6. In the Pleasure of their Company

[Instrumental]

7. Bezumnaya

8. Maximalist Scream

Starvation of stardust
Freedom of force transport
Lift up residents
To private space

Astonished achievement
Engineer beyond dreams
Maintain a standard
Faded, half-forgotten memory

In-line six, diesel philosophy

Maximalist scream
Power, exhaust - Maschinebau!
Maximalist scream
Accelerate - Maschinebau!
Twisted murder

Race to the apex
Fall hard with co-opted control
Tri-pointed star
Experience brings character

Bottom line wins
Charge stylistic chances
Challenge designs deluxe

Lust for new, in chaos is cosmos
Mid-century American spirit
Innovation, foundation
Create! Create!
