lyrics

I watched your movie
For the first time today
Now I’m writing the script for
My own misery play

And your body, it feels like dancing
And a body can feel so much
Oh but everyone knows
The mind, when it goes
The sharks take it out for lunch

I came by your circus
Round a quarter to ten
You lit a stick of
Some eastern incense

And our cups, they did floweth over
With top shelf Jamaican rum
I said, “when you’re a star, don’t forget who you are
Or the place where your song was sung”

And the young, they fuck to feel older
And the old, they fuck like they’d die
And the dead, they are fucking forever
At the orgy in the sky

I told you the story
Of a dowager queen
Afterwards you asked,
“What does dowager mean?”

And the honey you beg to choke on
Yes the honey you know so well
They say after awhile, you return to the smile
And remember the sweeter smells

Now I told it all to Henry
And he wrote the whole thing down
And gave it to mark, who sang like lark
Now the beauty is back in town

And I haven’t slept much lately
Not for a few good weeks
So when I arose in the pineapple grove
Well I swore that I done OD’d

And the young, they fuck to feel older
And the old, they fuck like they’d die
And the dead, they are fucking forever
At the orgy in the sky
