In the halls and in the churches
 
 They were preening on their lofty perches
 
 And holes in their conspiracies
 
 And they were looking right at me
 
  
  Come play Tempest with me
 
 Or maybe Millipede
 
 We can while away the hours
 
 Away from the hordes
 
 I've almost reached the yellow boards
  
 
 I hear the doors of institutions
 
 Opening and slamming shut
 
 They were desperate for solutions
 
 They were drowning in their elocutions
  
 
 Come play Tempest with me
 
 Or maybe Centipede
 
 We can hang out in the mall
 
 It's where I feel at home
 
 And I don't want to be alone
  
 
 Come play Tempest with me
 
 Or maybe Centipede
 
 We can hang out in the mall
 
 Away from the hordes
 
 I've almost reached those nasty green boards
