T. REX
- Monolith Lyrics / with translationsThe throne of time
Is a kingly thing
From whence you know
We all do begin
And dressed as you are girl
In your fashions of fate
Baby it's too late
Shallow all the actions
Of the children of men
Fogged was their vision
Since the ages began
And lost like a lion
In the canyons of smoke
Girl it's no joke.
Is a kingly thing
From whence you know
We all do begin
And dressed as you are girl
In your fashions of fate
Baby it's too late
Shallow all the actions
Fogged was their vision
Since the ages began
And lost like a lion
In the canyons of smoke
Girl it's no joke.
