|
They have killed the great sun jester |
|
Who danced between the stars |
|
They have stripped him of his manhood |
|
Signs of venus and of mars |
|
The cynics left him weeping |
|
And the jackals left him torn |
|
And the jester reaches out bind hands |
|
He can touch the stars no more. |
|
Chorus: |
|
And he took the stars in his hands |
|
And as he scattered them he'd shout |
|
"i'm the joker of the universe |
|
I'm what it's all about." |
|
Now he's dying in his grief |
|
And the hard men dragged him down |
|
They have killed the wild-eyed jester |
|
They have killed the fireclown |
|
Now his blind eyes seek the starlight |
|
And his fingers seek controls |
|
To take him into space again |
|
Where he was both young and old |
|
The dancers stiff with pain |
|
And they've made him kneel too long |
|
And the madness they have driven out |
|
They've left him cold and sane. |
|
Chorus |
|
He'll never - sing his songs - again.... |
|
He'll never dance between the stars - again.... |
|
He'll never laught - again.... |
|
No he'll never ever laugh again.... |
|
Oh, no.... |
