When we begin to reconstruct events, it lends itself to legend, yes The amount of love that goes into the sets is very obvious In this scale model, ship in bottle, swinging from the scaffolding As the bottle's breaking on the bow, the shatter of the christening It's one hell of an opening ceremony It's one hell of an opening ceremony Just sell it as, sell it as ceremony Just sell it as, sell it as ceremony We're living on this junket, drunk and on the clock, life at the top, can't knock it Might as well be chasing what we're tasting, since we're going stupid fast In this scale model, ship in bottle, swigging from a hidden flask Like a sweetheart in a locket, like the man inside the iron mask It's one hell of an opening ceremony It's one hell of an opening ceremony Just sell it as, sell it as ceremony Just sell it as, sell it as ceremony When your ship comes in, begin your journey back into the swirling sea Hanging from the mast, stick out your chest, and take in all its majesty What would be the point of living well without the promised member perks? Never book your farewell tour unless the reunion is in the works Then sell 'em an opening ceremony Then sell 'em an opening ceremony Let's sell it as, sell it as ceremony Let's sell it as, sell it as ceremony
