...my god
it's burst into flames
i can hear the
screaming screaming
everyone's doomed to
die
sweet jesus folks
it's a terrible sight
the announcer
starts to cry and i look
at my father's
eye
and
it suddenly seemed
too fearful
rimmed-red
as the edge of hell
and it fixed itself
upon me
and it burned
into every cell
it burned
into every cell

oh dad
the broken promises
hurt
more than broken bones
the people's screams
in the ballroom hall
drowned out
the saxophones

wah wah wah
wah wah wah
wah wah wah
wah wah

a great grey frog
now crouches
on the throne
of a former prince
and it's endless
croaking croaking
has no power to convince
oh dad
you did me in that day
with the turn
of your terrible
eye
and
i cannot fly
and i will not fly
and i'm afraid to fly
ever since

wah wah
wah wah
wah wah
wah wah....
