sig figs collective - ballad of the unsleeping city lyrics

(ambient campfire sounds)

hey everybody!
how’s everyone doing?
it’s been a minute!
god, the traffic was a nightmare!
love a good magical campfire
did you hear ricky made a song?
yeah, ricky said he and esther worked on it for a while

esther:
h+ll yes we did!
ricky:
hey everybody, sorry i’m a bit late, had to grab my guitar

hey ricky, glad you could make it!
that’s okay ricky!

ricky:
alright, esther and i wrote a little song for everybody, so, we hope you like it. please be careful around thе fire though. fire is dangerous and safеty is important

everybody:
(guitar starts, the crowd gives various “woo”s and “let’s go”s)

there were once six heroes of new york city (greatest city in the world)
who sat together to sing a little ditty (yeah, woo woo!)
to honor the place we fought to save
and those assh0l+s we sent to the grave
our legacy lives on in another wave (yeah, f+ck those assh0l+s)

along came a fairy named titania (boo, not my faerie queen!)
who found her way into a broadway mirror (she’s not even a good dancer…)
truth be told, no one could stand her
but she tried to k!ll misty and those around her
luckily no one else will ever hear her (honestly? terrible taste in footwear, like my god)

oh queen titania, screw you! (x2) (screw you!!)
it was so easy to steal your shoes
you should have known that you would lose
now all that’s left of you are the bad reviews (one out of ten, i want a refund!)
chorus:
ohhh! don’t you worry, don’t you pity
ohhh! though it may be rough and may be gritty
ohhh! and sometimes people may be sh+tty
we still love the unsleeping city

there once was a lich named robert moses (f+cking dracula)
who sucked us dry from right under our noses (yeah, i did not like that guy)
wanted to exploit the poor
so he shoved that dream through an unlocked door
but now that f+cking vampire’s on the floor (oh, he f+cked with pete? [f+ck that guy] stay in the ground, you assh0l+)

oh robert moses, screw you! (x2) (screw you!!)
you nasty little wall street pr+ck
hearing you speak just makes me sick
bad traffic on the hex? you’re a f+cking d+ck (oh he f+cked with the traffic too? f+ck him!)

once a businessman starting dreaming (not my american dream)
his creation had nothing worth redeeming (you look like you iron your socks)
blond haired, blue eyed, clean shaven b+tch
this b+st+rd looked to flip a switch
think you can stop the dreams? hon, that’s rich (take that protestant work ethic and shove it up your ass)

chorus

there once was a monk named tony simos (just his name makes me gag)
who hated the land of dreams (what did heather even see in him?)
but he got in the way of new york’s heroes
sofie dropped his hp down to zero
now all that’s left of tony are his screams (bye / toxic masculinity is dead, haven’t you heard?)
oh tony simos, f+ck you! (x2) (f+ck you!!)
you could have chosen the side of life
came with us and found your wife
now all that’ll be remembered are your tattoos (which f+cking suck anyway / yeah, they’re so derivative!)

ricky: hey, esther, do i have to do this one?
esther: yes, ricky, you have to do it
ricky: sigh fine

there once was a creature of deeper dreaming (ew, i hate it)
pete called it null and left it fuming and reeling (that thing gave me the f+cking creeps)

(uh, wait, who were we talking about?
i don’t know. guess it was nothing)

chorus

there once were seven heroes of the 20th dimension
who came together to stray from the convention
to get us through the year we lost
and told us stories while ours are paused
to our intrepid heroes, thank you all
