Show restraint in all things

Go to sleep when the sun goes down

Wake up in the morning when it rises

Know yourself, don't know anyone else

You are stuck to rules where you live in principalities

Beware of the system

Be honest with all the victims you need

To covet youth and covet children

In principalities

The palace of wisdom is closed for business

Go find yourself within yourself

The finest marble torso could take all night

A thousand Italian craftsmen working their whole lives

Beyond the ocean there is an island

And it exists in your brainpan

Where most of you are

And if you don’t understand, find another man

Take a punch at his face for your friends

But know that you are all of the finest things

You need to beard the lion

You need to beard that lion

You need to find in yourself

The things off the shelf of principalities

You gotta fill the wine, follow the wire

You follow the wire

Now take your little boyfriends

They didn't understand

All the Italian craftsmen don't hear what they’re saying

They don't understand, feel the wire, there is one

Feel the golden goose flail

Beard the lion, you're by yourself

There is no one else, it's all inside

Look for the wire, the knowledge is there

The knowledge is there, principalities

Look at what we've done, a part of the system

Feel the wine, spill the win

We could all kill one

Your own suicide, they're outside

I'm feeling fine standing outside

You have been denied, it's what we want, the setting sun

Son, I’m having fun in principalities

Let’s get inside

Principalities
