QUEENIE
We're all so sure
We're all so wise
No limits
No boundaries
No compromise
Laughing at our neighbor
Smiling through a hiss
How did we come to this?
We're all amuse
We're al inspired
So cunning
So clever
And so admired
Easy to be angry
Easy to dismiss
How did we come to this?
Maybe I've been living in a daydream
Maybe I've been talking in my sleep
If I've been awake
Pardon my mistake
But time is running low
And talk is growing cheap
We play our games
We place our bets
No witness
No weakness
And no regrets
Filling up with frenzy
k**ing with a kiss
How did we all come to this?
Time goes by
Plans grow stale
People die
And parties fail
How did we come to this?
ENSEMBLE
She had grey eyes
Lips like coals aglow
And her face was a tinted mask of snow
A fascinating woman
As they go
