Meet The New Mozart |
Meet the new Mozart |
He’s in the bed where commerce |
Sleeps with art; |
Who can blame him? |
No pauper’s grave this time round |
Will claim him |
Only days before he died |
The Salzburg wonder, prophesised; |
'I know one day I will see |
A less heartbreaking century.' |
'I'll form a band, and play some dates |
Reject the music God dictates |
All I write may not last |
Hell it may be manure |
But I’ll endure |
Not burn out fast.' |
Meet the new Mozart |
The comeback of the Salzburg wizard |
Meet the new Mozart |
He’s in the bed where commerce |
Sleeps with art; |
Who can blame him? |
No pauper’s grave this time round |
Will claim him |
So much for the divine spark |
It flared then left me in the dark |
Next time I won’t be so pure |
Dreaming big, dying poor |
Next time round, not so bright |
I’ll swap a molten core, a starburst for |
Candlelight |
Meet the new Mozart |
The comeback of the Salzburg wizard |
Meet the new Mozart |
He’s in the bed where commerce |
Sleeps with art; |
Who can blame him? |
No pauper’s grave this time round |
Will claim him |
Meet the new Mozart |
Who can blame him? |
No pauper’s grave this time round |
Will claim him |
