[Verse 1]
They're selling Epostcards of the hanging
Well they're Apainting the passports brown E
And the Bbeauty parlor's filled with sailors
The Acircus is in town E
Oh now look, here comes the blind commissioner
Well they Agot him in a trance E
One Bhand is tied to the tightrope walker
The Aother's in his pants E
[Chorus]
And the Ariot squad they're restless
They Eneed somewhere to go A
As Lady and I look Bout tonight
FromA Desolation ERow
[Verse 2]
Oh CinderEella, she seems so easy
"Well it takesA one to know one," she Esmiles
And she putsB her hands in her back pockets
Oh ABette Davis style E
And now here comes the Romeo, moaning
"You BelongA to Me I Believe" E
And if Bsomeone says, "You're in the wrong place, my friend
A You better leave" E
[Chorus]
And then the Aonly sound that's left
After the Eambulances go A
Is Cinderella Bsweeping up
OnA Desolation ERow
[Solo]
E A E B A E
A E B A
[Interlude]
E Now at Emidnight all the agents
And Asuperhuman crew E
Go Bout and round up everyone
That knowsA more than they do E
They're going to Ebring them to the factory
Where the Aheartattack machine E
Is Bstrapped across their shoulders
And Athen the kerosene E
[Chorus]
Is Abrought down from the castles
By inEsurance men who go A
Check to see that no one isB escaping
ToA Desolation ERow
Because Aright now I can't read too good
Don't Esend me no letters no A
Not unless you're going toB mail them
FromA Desolation ERow
