* HANGING THE JESTER *

WHO'S HAPPINESS AM I PLEASING?
WILL CHARADING SLOW?
I'M YOUR PUPPET POWER THROWN

AND IT WON'T BE EASY FOR ME TO KEEP ON TRACK
I KEEP ON SLIP-SLIP-SLIPPIN' BACK

AS UNWANTED AS AN ORPHANAGE
I'M YOUR DONE-UP MAKE-UP KING HOCK STAR
WITH A BORROWED CHANCE

SO SELL ME POWDERED WISDOM, BANKROLL THE EGO WELL
ORGASMIC PUNCH OF OVERRATED STALE & STUDIED TRAILS

I DON'T KNOW JUST WHAT TO SAY, BEEN HANGING THE JESTER FOR ANOTHER DAY
NO REPLY ON WHO TO BLAME, BEEN HANGING THE JESTER FOR ANOTHER...DAY

TIPPED TO THEATER MODE
WHERE LEGEND GOES IT'S FINITE
TO CONTRADICT MY GOALS

SO FRACTURE ALL MY GLAMOUR, CELEBRATE THE VOID
CHURN THE MUSIC, TURN THE LYRICS, WATCH THE PAIN EXPLODE...EXPLODE
