[02:11.033]Night, her sable dome scattered with diamonds
[02:14.876]Fused my dust from a light year
[02:21.836]Squeezed me to her breast, sewed me with carbon
[02:25.347]Strung my warp across time
[02:33.373]Gave me each a horse, sunrise and graveyard
[02:37.204]Told me only I was her
[02:42.471]Bid me face the east, closed me in questions
[02:47.255]Built the sky for my dawn
[03:13.606]Cleaned my feet of mud, followed the empty
[03:17.134]Zebra ride to the Cirkus
[03:24.654]Past a painted cage, spoke to the paybox
[03:27.661]Glove which wrote on my tongue
[03:34.693]Pushed me down a slide to the arena
[03:38.206]Megaphonium fanfare
[03:43.235]In his cloak of words strode the ringmaster
[03:47.498]Bid me join the parade (Ahhh!)
[04:26.858]"Worship!" cried the clown, "I am a T.V
[04:30.119]Making bandsmen go clockwork
[04:36.385]See the slinky seal Cirkus policeman
[04:39.165]Bareback ladies have fish"
[04:46.001]Strongmen by his feet, plate-spinning statesman
[04:49.011]Acrobatically juggling
[04:53.522]Bids his tamers go quiet the tumblers
[04:57.037]Lest the mirror stop turning
[06:11.945]Elephants forgot, force-fed on stale chalk
[06:14.701]Ate the floors of their cages
[06:21.221]Strongmen lost their hair, paybox collapsed
[06:24.503]And lions sharpened their teeth
[06:31.028]Gloves raced round the ring, stallions stampeded
[06:34.594]Pandemonium seesaw
[06:39.166]I ran for the door, ringmasters shouted
[06:42.924]"All the fun of the Cirkus!"
