Lyrics:
niggas and thugs
Eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth
Blood for blood coming to a theater near you
It's all love guns for gun streets filled
With rivers
and a great hole forces
Me down with my soapbox, my pulpit
The theater ceiling is silver star spangled
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
Do you
Sound check's finished baby, time to tell a joke or two
Relax, can't let it get to you
The haunted theater now has come to life
Time to tip you hat
curtains
Get a feathered hat for the baby, photographed in front of the theater
Get an agent and in jig time, you'll be being booked in the big time
Oh
my mind,
butterflies were flying high)
After the encore
(would this be the time)
That love would bring us together
But, when the curtain fell
(on
an empty theater, with stars on the ground
Fences in the sky and tears in the curtain of time
Oh, what can I tell you, my Caroline?
Except yet somewhere out
You say you're gonna testify
Lie away, lie away
So you're gonna gun me down
Go ahead, fire away
You say you'll bring the curtain down
Turn
My life is a musical,
I know how to put on a pretty pathetic show, I hide
Backstage, keep the curtains closed,
Cause I'm scared, I'm scared
out
for buildings sheathed in gray
the trees begin to sway
The curtain rolls
eastward over
Lincoln's knoll
lying on my back
raindrops dive in packs
Tuning up the orchestra, bringing down the ceiling lights
All at once the curtain goes up
Now it begins, strike up the band
Bring on the dancing girls
love
We don't need rehearsal
Our moment takes over
You're pulling me so close
And kiss me all over
A theater of glamour
And I hear the curtain call
anymore
The crowd is growing silent with the gathering storm
When the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side
Just trying to keep up the act
for their own curtain call
Starved for attention, the curtains fall
On their own curtain call
Given attention, they'll take it all
I'm theater
an empty theater, with stars on the ground
Fences in the sky and tears in the curtain of time
Oh, what can I tell you, my Caroline?
Except yet somewhere out
In the midst of the theater
We took the grand bow
The curtain closed off, sordidly
Our world now underground
All the world is a stage
Left in our
curtains
Get a feathered hat for the baby, photographed in front of the theater
Get an agent and in jig time, you'll be bein' booked in the big time
Oh
My life is a musical, I know how to put on
A pretty pathetic show, I hide
Backstage, keep the curtains closed
'Cause I'm scared, I'm scared
I'm
grotesque
Night time in Budapest
The puppet theater is so dark inside
Gas lamps light the stage
We're watching as the curtain begins to rise
What
in the line, with the whole cast
Put on a smile, wear a fake mask
Look at the time, it's going fast
Theater's a lie, but it's a blast
The time ticks
of the theater
Stomp my feet, I'm established I will never come down
Curtain call, I'm frozen could I ever move again
Now they've seen my darkest side
Oh,
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain
It's the magic of theater
To shoot exclusively on sixteen millimeter
I want the real thing
Why's that
The curtains fall, the stage is set for your betrayal
Stab me with the knives of treason
Tear my heart out with a deadly touch
Don't give me no motives, no
an impact
And the curtains started closin'
Then the lights go off
But I didn't even notice
That there was no crowd
But I still took my bow
In an empty
I'm lost in the theater
With nothing but a lighter
Don't know where I'm going
Which role am I playing?
What is the next scene?
Where is the stage?
