Gold ringed medallions offer faces to fancy things that go astray 
Shouting in the distance are voices 
from these withered lungs that seem to say 
Dance until the top comes down 
and little feet are faster than they were today 
Hungry angry soldiers offer fortunes that 
lead you in temptations way 

Consider laughing in the face of the arrogant stranger 
Consider laughing in his face 

Even when you laugh it comes across 
as if there's nothing out there wonderful 
Memories often lapse into the kind of song 
that keeps your engines bountiful 
Dance until your feet are sucked out from 
the ground or there they'll stay 
Sometimes a dream will clear the lines 
that have left your day in disarray 

Consider laughing in the face of the arrogant stranger 
It doesn't matter what you say 'cause you are an angel 
Consider laughing in the face of the arrogant stranger 
Consider laughing in his face 

Eyes move from side to side...and lids remain shut 
Patient waiting the anxious mind...when will the body wake up 

Oh stranger tell me can you feel me 
as I slap the wood of this guitar 
The wind surrounds you as you're running 
from this silhouette of who you are 
Dance until your feet will burn your final bridge from yesterday 
Slowly you approach me in the daylight 
and your arrogance just fades away 

Consider laughing in the face of the arrogant stranger 
It doesn't matter what you say 'cause you are an angel 
Consider laughing in the face of the arrogant stranger 
Consider laughing in his face 
Consider laughing in his face
