Letra de Cirkus (Live in Chicago 28 June 2017)
Night, her sable dome scattered with diamonds Fused my dust from a light year Squeezed me to her breast, sowed me with carbon Strung my warp across timeGave me each horse, sunrise and graveyard Told me only I was her Bid ne face the east closed me in questions Built the sky for my dawnCleaned my feet of mud, followed the empty Zebra ride to the cirkus Past a painted cage, spoke to the paybox Glove which wrote on my tonquePushed me down a slide to the arena Megaphonium fanfare In his cloak of words strode the ringmaster Bid me join the parade"Worship", cried the clown, "I'm a TV Making bandsmen go clockwork See the slinky seal cirkus policeman Bareback ladies have fish"Strongmen by his feet, plate-spinning statesman Accrobatically juggling Bids his tamers go quiet the tumblers Lest the mirror stop turningElephants forgot, force-fed on stale chalk Ate the floors of their cages Strongmen lost their hair, paybox collapsed Lions sharpened their teethGloves raced round the ring, stallions stampeded Pandemonium seesaw I ran for the door, ringmaster shouted "All the fun of the cirkus!"
