His Kiss, the Riot |
| The devil take this Orpheus |
| And his belladonna kiss |
| Beautiful, poisonous, lovely, deadly |
| Dangerous this jack of hearts |
| With his kiss, the riot starts |
| All my children came here poor |
| Clamoring for bed and board |
| Now, what do they clamor for? |
| Freedom |
| Freedom |
| Have I made myself their lord |
| Just to fall upon the sword |
| Of some pauper’s minor chord? |
| Who will lead them? |
| Who lays all our best-laid plans? |
| Who makes work for idle hands? |
| Only one thing to be done |
| Let them go but let there be some term to be agreed upon |
| Some condition |
| Orpheus the undersigned shall not turn to look behind |
| She’s out of sight and he’s out of his mind |
| Every coward seems courageous in the safety of a crowd |
| Bravery can be contagious when the band is playing loud |
| Nothing makes a man so bold |
| As a woman’s smile and a hand to hold |
| But all alone his blood runs thin |
| And doubt comes- doubt comes in |
