| It begins with a blessing |
| And it ends with a curse; |
| Making life easy, |
| By making it worse; |
| My mask is my master, |
| The trumpeter weeps, |
| But his voice is so weak |
| As he speaks from his sleep, saying |
| Why, why, why, why are we sleeping! |
| People are watching, |
| People who stare; |
| Waiting for something |
| That’s already there. |
| Tomorrow I’ll find it, |
| The trumpeter screams, |
| And remembers he’s hungry |
| And drowns in his dreams, saying |
| Why, why, why, why are we sleeping! |
| My head is a nightclub |
| With glasses and wine; |
| The customers dancing |
| Or just making time; |
| While daevid is cursing |
| The customers scream! |
| Now everyone’s shouting, |
| «get out of my dreams!» |
