Don't leave me, Fantasma. You were all that I had
Pink plastic fantastic, life isn't half bad
Heavenly distracted by your slow blue flame
Now vague is all I can , they say I'll never be the same
But who needs me when I have these?
these dolls and malls and trains

The greatest show on earth and it's the only show in town
it shines like Diamonds in the dirt like Rubies in the crown
when the lights finally go down;
and He sings "Follow me to the land of the free,
to the wreck of the Ivory Tower!"
I'll go if I can but I can't understand
the invisible source of his power

I fell helplessly at the steel of Babel
to weep on my knees for the pyre of bibles
What's missing from me is alive in the wild
Obscure memory of the mind of a child
