Congratulations by MGMT

Dead in the water
It's not a (1)________ 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 with a whimper
It's not a blaze of glory
You look down from (2)________ 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 someone to make reports
That tell me how my money's spent
To book my stays and (3)________ my plans
So I can't tell what's really there
And all I need's a great big:
Congratulations

I'll keep (4)________ dreams
You pay attention for me
As (5)______________ as it seems
I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me
The ground may be (6)____________ 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 (7)__________________ and Baldwins
You start (8)________ 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 (9)________ the quilt upon the lawn
Spread my arms and (10)________ up:
Congratulations
