Genuine, a Fantastic Revue Lyrics

	In the living-room a man on a sofa is laying
	Two strangers at the door and one is knocking
	The man stands and opens the great wooden door
	The one who knows the host tells the other visitor
	An old man with top hat and a dark walking stick
	Gets through the wooden door and says without a trick
	“I want to buy the portrait of this old heroine”
	“I'll never sell this one not even to a king”
	“since he finished his last work
	Percy's gone wild and casts strange lurks
	Like a mad man who went too far
	His oil is the cause let's take it afar”
	“come back tomorrow” says the painter's friend
	“Sir, maybe tomorrow in a sale it'll end
	tonight, we'll try to make his mind change
	and off with the oil, Sir, thou might get a chance”
	“since he finished his last work
	Percy's gone wild and casts strange lurks
	Like a mad man who went too far
	His oil is the cause let's take it afar”
	All eve long young ones tried to convince him
	To let the old man by this sale enrich him
	The talks are loud and words are high
	“Nothing to do but leave him tonight”
	All alone the painter stares at his work
	There's a woman face with dark and long hair
	Percy takes a book and reads it aloud
	“beautiful & perverse, Genuine a slave was made
	Priestess of mysteries bought by a strange old man”
	He falls asleep and the portrait comes alive
	And dressed with black ribbons lays by his side
