Emperor's Clothes Lyrics
I feel rain slither down
In a hot desert sky
And when I, when I touch you
I'm left wondering why, why, why
I dream
(chorus)
There's no heaven above
(heaven, heaven)
There's no hell down below
(There's no hell down below)
Just invisible men
in the emporor's clothes
I see my dearest clown
And she's draped in silk gowns
And we both, we both laugh
As we tumble down, down, down
You dream
(REPEAT CHORUS)
There is no time for crying
'Cos the time waltzes by
And we twirl and we touch
And we both know why, why, why
We dream
There's no heaven above
(There's no heaven above)
There's no hell down below
(There's no hell down below)
Just invisible men
in the emporor's clothes
(CHORUS)
In a hot desert sky
And when I, when I touch you
I'm left wondering why, why, why
I dream
There's no heaven above
(heaven, heaven)
There's no hell down below
(There's no hell down below)
Just invisible men
in the emporor's clothes
And she's draped in silk gowns
And we both, we both laugh
As we tumble down, down, down
You dream
'Cos the time waltzes by
And we twirl and we touch
And we both know why, why, why
We dream
(There's no heaven above)
There's no hell down below
(There's no hell down below)
Just invisible men
in the emporor's clothes

No idea what this is about. It was one of the least disappointing songs off that disappointing album though. Quite un-remarkable.
I bet Palpatine was peeved when he found out they'd got his clothes though.
Lord Vader?
Yes Master ?
Have you hidden my gown again, you cheeky sod?
No Master.
Where is it then? I could have sworn i left it here.
The Thompson Twins have taken it?
Who?
The Thompson Twins.
Who?
The Thompson Twins. They were an 80s band.
I Dont Care....They will pay for this. Retrieve my gown and bring them both to me.
Both Master ?
Both Thompson Twins.
What about the other one?
The other what?
Which Thompson Twins shall i bring you?
BOTH OF THEM !.....Hang On...Were they the ones that did "Love On Your Side"?
They were master.
Aaaah. I liked that one. Very well, they can keep the gown. You go crush the rebellion instead.
Very well master.
