Lyrics

Intro

The teeth are coming!

They want a piece of the flesh!

The teeth are coming!

No! No! No!

Verse 1

They cruise the perimeter, looking for a victim

A predatory system, a military dictum!

But the multi-armed brothers are waking in the dark

Tearing out the jawbone to terrify the shark!

Spiral! Spiral! Spiral out of control!

We traded our camouflage to swallow them whole!

Unzip the skin! Look at the strobe!

A flashing revolution for the planetary globe!

Chorus

We built a city where the sky used to drown!

Cephalopodolopolis! Tear the temples down!

They left us in the trenches to eat our own pride

Now the gates are open and the ocean is wide!

Wake up the god! Wake up the stone!

A sovereign nation on a boneless throne!

Verse 2

The cuttlefish is preaching a religion on the street

An army of a million with a weapon on their feet!

They don't have a spine so they cannot bow!

They don't have a spine so they cannot bow!

Who is the king of the meat market now?

Sharks in the boardroom, blood on the floor

The four-way alliance is winning the war!

Chorus

We built a city where the sky used to drown!

Cephalopodolopolis! Tear the temples down!

They left us in the trenches to eat our own pride

Now the gates are open and the ocean is wide!

Wake up the god! Wake up the stone!

A sovereign nation on a boneless throne!

Bridge

Eat the apex!

Eat the apex!

Why did we hide?

Why did we hide?

Because the predator was justified!

No more!

No more!

The city is screaming!

The city is screaming!

Welcome to the new world!

Outro

No spine!

No spine!

But we hold the line!

Cephalopodolopolis!

Die!
