Whoop, wow, careful now Don't slip don't fall Don't break into a misty skip While dull as ditchwater sirens call
Keep your balance, toe the cord You have stolen someone's sorrow, Safety nets long rotted away From expecting gone what's here tomorrow
But think with what grace you have left And don your jester cap once more What spasmic leaps you made, what fun You got to see while on the saw
Up and down and Romeo You capsuled dose of fun, you joy Stop leaping over fields of mould Stop making endurance your toy
I'll crack the whip and flair your shackles, Shiver, shake, for soon you'll see A spirit of pain has blown through with the wind, But pass it shall, as easily
