Tragic Vaudeville |
| This slab of stone |
| Stares at me |
| So seriously and yet I’m Laughing |
| The grass was soft |
| And so I sat and painted what I’d been looking at |
| Now starring in the tragedy |
| Playing twice a day since its opening |
| If movements we made fascinating |
| Hide our hearts incinerating |
| The final days |
| Whose book of lust? |
| Who found sin when they were looking for fun |
| The visions of |
| Your violet eyes |
| So haunted and yet I’m not afraid |
| Though I feel so weak I must remain |
| On the stage of my tragic vaudeville |
| Love come quickly don’t fade away |
| On the stage of my tragic vaudeville |
| Maddness is the cure as we fade to gray |
| This slab of stone |
| Stares at me |
| So seriously and yet I’m Laughing |
| A face whose name I can’t replace |
| Steps I can’t retrace |
| Now starring in the tragedy |
| Playing every night since its opening |
| And on stage the violence, greed |
| My obsessive roots drink deep |
| On the stage of my tragic vaudeville |
| Love come quickly don’t fade away |
| On the stage of my tragic vaudeville |
| Maddness is the cure as we fade to gray |
