| The character actor plays romantic leads and the kitten curls in wet

| anticipation
|
| The opportunity is here
|
| It’s not the first time, it’s not a dream, she cowers in the corner,
|
| she pretends
|
| It’s just a scene
|
| The Maitre D' has seen it all before, the actor, the actress, the gigolo,
|
| the whore
|
| Between the lines, between the sheets, there’s no rehearsal, they make a deal,
|
| he’ll soon be home
|
| Living in Wonderland, the grass is so green
|
| Tongue-tied, a dry mouth swallows a scream
|
| Yours to pretend, it’s yours to pretend, this trip never ends, it’s coming at
|
| you
|
| In 3D
|
| The freeway’s jammed, the lights bleed red, and the anger gathers in the fog,
|
| I meditate in green
|
| A wall of horns, blasts away, and the exit road to Jericho stands steady,
|
| held in amber beams that play on misty screens and smoky cars whose occupants
|
| mouth curses at a world that doesn’t hear
|
| Living in Wonderland, the grass is so green
|
| Tongue-tied, a dry mouth swallows a scream
|
| Yours to pretend, it’s yours to pretend, this trip never ends, it’s coming at
|
| you in 3D |
