[00:08.33]Night: her sable dome scattered with diamonds
[00:11.31]Fused my dust from a light year
[00:16.67]Squeezed me to her breast, sowed me with carbon
[00:20.06]Strung my warp across time
[00:25.07]Gave me each a horse, sunrise and graveyard
[00:28.96]Told me only I was her
[00:32.20]Bid me face the east, closed me in questions
[00:35.36]Built the sky for my dawn
[00:39.10]
[00:56.11]Cleaned my feet of mud, followed the empty
[00:59.26]Zebra ride to the Cirkus
[01:04.67]Past a painted cage, spoke to the paybox
[01:07.70]Glove which wrote on my tongue
[01:12.97]Pushed me down a slide to the arena
[01:16.25]Megaphonium fanfare
[01:19.45]In his cloak of words strode the ringmaster
[01:22.79]Bid me join the parade
[01:26.28]
[01:55.69]"Worship!" cried the clown, "I am a T.V
[01:58.85]Making bandsmen go clockwork
[02:03.37]See the slinky seal Cirkus policeman
[02:07.09]Bareback ladies have fish"
[02:11.99]Strongmen by his feet, plate-spinning statesman
[02:15.44]Acrobatically juggling
[02:18.96]Bids his tamers go quiet the tumblers
[02:22.07]Lest the mirror stop turning
[02:25.34]
[03:21.95]Elephants forgot, force-fed on stale chalk
[03:25.19]Ate the floors of their cages
[03:29.40]Strongmen lost their hair, paybox collapsed and
[03:33.36]Lions sharpened their teeth
[03:37.86]Gloves raced round the ring, stallions stampeded
[03:41.12]Pandemonium seesaw
[03:44.50]I ran for the door, ringmasters shouted
[03:47.48]"All the fun of the Cirkus!"
