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 (1)________ or swim
When all is (2)________ if the ticket sells

Out with a whimper
It's not a blaze of glory
You look down from your temple
As people (3)________________ to make it a story
And chisel a marble word
But all is (4)________ if it's (5)__________ heard

But I've got someone to make reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my stays and draw my plans
So I can't tell what's really there
And all I need's a great big:
Congratulations

I'll keep your dreams
You pay (6)__________________ for me
As strange as it seems
I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me
The ground may be moving 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 dawn Steinways and Baldwins
You start (7)________ a simple (8)__________ of all the waste
And salt to taste

But damn my luck and damn these friends
That keep on combing back their smiles
I (9)________ my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my arms and soak up:
Congratulations
