Congratulations by MGMT

Dead in the water
It's not a paid vacation
The sons and daughters
Of city officials attend demonstrations
It's hardly a sink or swim
When all is well if the ticket sells

Out (1)________ a whimper
It's not a blaze of glory
You (2)________ (3)________ from your temple
As people endeavor to make it a story
And chisel a marble word
But all is lost if it's never heard

But I've got (4)______________ to (5)________ reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my stays and (6)________ my plans
So I can't tell what's really there
And all I need's a great big:
Congratulations

I'll (7)________ your dreams
You pay attention for me
As strange as it seems
I'd rather dissolve than have you (8)____________ me
The ground may be (9)____________ fast
But I tied my boots to a broken mast

The difference is clear
You throw it in your cauldron
Rust and veneer
Dusk and (10)________ Steinways and Baldwins
You start with a simple stock of all the waste
And salt to taste

But damn my luck and damn these friends
That keep on combing back their smiles
I save my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my arms and soak up:
Congratulations
