[Verse 1] We slipped past the olive gate Gold on the goblet, teeth on the grape You wore your trouble like a crown I wore my name upside down The servants laughed in red silk sleeves Snake rings shining on the leaves And there you were, with a laughing face Pouring thunder in the place [Pre-Chorus] Three shadows at the far side Measuring our steps with thread One says, "Run" One says, "Stay" One just tilts her head [Chorus] Dionysus party, spin me round Dionysus party, let me drown Cut my thread, then pull me close Dionysus party, we want more Dionysus party, kiss the flame Dionysus party, call my name One for joy and one for fate Dionysus party, don't be late [Verse 2] You bit the fig, I saw a star Fall in the bowl, break apart The oldest sister touched my wrist Said, "Every sweet thing ends like this" But I was drunk on the beating drums Drunk on the moon in the hollow cups You took my hand through the laurel smoke And every warning turned to joke [Pre-Chorus] Three shadows at the far side Threading gold through the air One says, "Take" One says, "Keep" One says, "Beware" [Chorus] Dionysus party, spin me round Dionysus party, let me drown Cut my thread, then pull me close Dionysus party, we want more Dionysus party, kiss the flame Dionysus party, call my name One for joy and one for fate Dionysus party, don't be late [Bridge] [Breakdown] The first one smiles with a silver knife The second one hums, "This is your life" The third one laughs and lets it fall Thread in my hand and I want it all So take my fear Take my pride Let the wild blood Be my guide [Final Chorus] Dionysus party, spin me round Dionysus party, let me drown Cut my thread, then pull me close Dionysus party, we want more Dionysus party, kiss the flame Dionysus party, call my name One for joy and one for fate Dionysus party, don't be late [Outro] Wine on my tongue Night in my veins Three quiet sisters Clap my name
