Everybody Plays the Mime Lyrics

	作曲 : Jonathan Fire Eater
	They say that good is too often the enemy of the best
	I think of Peter in his cowboy vest
	Under the Marble Arch way down in the square
	He was yelling at the mimes for them to beware
	He said "you're nothing so precious, you're nothing so rare
	You're quite common I can see you everywhere
	I see you in my church when you mime your prayers
	You're wearing pearls and your hair is grayer"
	Hey everybody plays the mime sometimes
	Are you married to an unfaithful world where you carry the flags if they come unfurled?
	Are you locked into a projection booth that shows the films of your troubled youth?
	Hey everybody plays the mime sometimes
	So don't start to pout or I will take you to task
	Your sailor stripes and your white powder mask
	You mimic the wino with the silver flask
	It's the transient child and his eyes that you lack
	Your world is a tundra so painfully, painfully bare
	Are you married to an unfaithful world where you carry the flags if they come unfurled?
	Are you locked into a projection booth that shows the films of your troubled youth?
	Hey everybody plays the mime sometimes
	Yes your world is a tundra so painfully bare
	Of the roses in the silk scarves they wear in their hair
	Have they turned you to the German, German au-pairs?
	They spoon-feed their princes apples and pears
	Yeah they spoon-feed their princes cooked apples and pears
	Oh they spoon-feed their princes apples and pears
	Oh they spoon-feed their princes cooked apples and pears
	Hey everybody plays the mime sometimes
