The lights were out, the streets were black
the birds asleep on distant wires
And the clown was rather tired
The clouds were hanging in the sky
the clown was craving he could
fly away from all the wars
the scum, the slum and filthy who*es
With all his might he wished that he
could be the one to tell them what was wrong
"The late-for-dinner-news were on
and I was also somewhat gone
as I saw the picture fading
The electricity was dead
and in the dark I cut my
head on the refrigerator
woke up several hours later
everything was bright and calm
and then a shadow on the wall
began to talk of love and grace
A queen indeed, I saw her face
A black eyed girl, a smoky tart
she really touched a junkie's heart
I'm need, I fell down"
Aladdin the Clown
The clown had really seen the light
he couldn't believe his drunken eyes
and he fell in love with Lucy
But blind with pa**ion as he was
he couldn't take the stand, because:
Lucy dances, Lucy drinks,
and Lucy f**s and Lucy screams
I'm left alone here on the stage
with audience and dreams
Yeah, in the year of redestruction
someone messed and changed direction
Turned around, turned out to be
the spice of the duality
and me, I frown"
Aladdin the clown
Down the streets and riversides
he ran around with empty eyes
The clown, he sneaked beneath the walls
of peace and love and hate
And sick with love and anger sin
he pealed the diamond tangerine
of hate and war and envy
and the contra-revolutionary dream
Oh, the geek crown
Aladdin the Clown
Oh, the geek crown
Aladdin the Clown
