Roman Statues

Give me a handshake
Make an impression
Make me compressed
With a quick flip of the wrist
I will explain
I will explain

If the king's shakin'
No one will make it
It's all in your handle
It's all in the way you move
I will explain
I will explain

It's a ruin and all you see
Are roman statues' heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is ancient stonework heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is intricate detail

This is a paper
Fill up the spaces
Make sure this empty room
Feels out of place
I will explain
I will explain

Out of the tower
And down to the sidewalk
Outline your humble
But hopeful beginnings
I will explain
I will explain

It's a ruin and all you see
Are roman statues' heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is ancient stonework heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is intricate detail

I've got to hand it to you
You've got a nice place here
I've got to hand it to you
You've got a nice place here

Give me a handshake
Shake like you mean it
Fake like you've never faked
You know I wouldn't complain
I won't complain
I won't complain

Sell off the statues
Under the table
Let all your stories
Turn into fables with time
I won't complain
I won't complain

It's a ruin and all you see
Are roman statues' heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is ancient stonework heads
All a ruin and all you see
Is intricate detail

Give me a handshake
Make an impression now
