See your eyes shaking
They want to do an about face
To start again, dull and relieved
But the show spares no one
Let’s clown around
Tickets are sold out
So don’t let them down
No sleight of hand
When nobody is watching
Grab a handful, enjoy
Throw it on stage
Throw it
Look at every step
With the trunk upright
Mechanize the muscles
To overbalance
Rough as rust
Sheer as glass
Barking, wagging
And every praise will raise you up
But the
Throat will dry
And every word will make you cough
And every stab will bow you down
See your eyes shining
With no light, confident, ignorant,
Riding for a fall
Confetti throw
Deafening fireworks
You just wanna make them
Look skyward
Let them drool
Over the floor
Fool them all
And kick their balls
