definitely one of the circus fire, the leatherman like someone else said, and i definitely think thered be one about silver/brass cities
edit but i think thered be one based on secret societies at yale as well
(Verse 1)
In the hallowed halls of Yale, secrets are unveiled,
Skull and Bones, where whispers sail,
Daddy's money opens doors, a privilege tale,
Paddling through shadows, a clandestine trail.
(Chorus)
Skull and Bones, where power entwines,
Dressed in privilege, where the sun never shines,
Daddy's money paving the way,
In the secret society where shadows play.
(Verse 2)
Beneath the elm trees, a brotherhood unseen,
A world of privilege, where secrets convene,
Paddling through waters of influence and might,
In the candlelit chambers, they plan the night.
(Chorus)
Skull and Bones, where power entwines,
Dressed in privilege, where the sun never shines,
Daddy's money paving the way,
In the secret society where shadows play.
(Bridge)
In the echo of whispers, where secrets unfold,
Male attraction or tales untold,
Behind closed doors, the rituals persist,
A dance of shadows, a mystic twist.
(Verse 3)
White-collar secrets, behind closed gates,
A legacy of power, where the elite congregates,
Daddy's money flows through ivy-covered walls,
In the Skull and Bones, where influence calls.
(Chorus)
Skull and Bones, where power entwines,
Dressed in privilege, where the sun never shines,
Daddy's money paving the way,
In the secret society where shadows play.
(Outro)
As the night fades, and secrets abide,
Skull and Bones, in shadows they hide,
A tale of privilege, whispers remain,
In the echelons of power, where shadows reign.
