Your costumed smile

No conscience can absolve
The Sun King
The Sun King
The Sun King
(Here comes the rain)
To test our will
(Here comes the rain)
To cleanse again
You make the Earth revolve
You make the camera sing
No conscience can absolve
The Sun King
You make the Earth revolve
(The Sun King)
You make the camera sing
(The Sun King)
No conscience can absolve
(The Sun King)
