lyrics

A key is being passed around a garden party
Covertly from hand to hand
One by one
In groups of twos
The guest are disappearing
To an upper room
On the thickly carpeted stairs
You can barely hear their steps
In fact their feet never touch
As with their toes dangling
They spin upward
Thumping the lips
And banging on the landings
The door opens
The room is lit
With locked hands
Their arms swaying slowly
The sisters sing
Their voices drain
And one bends down
to whisper something
Into the ear of the sleeping king
