Houdini
Gather 'round, gather around.
The music plays as we stare at the magician. All cloaked in red, in honor of their traditions.
Styled by the mortician, we're all gathered around because of her magic tricks.
She can make herself disappear.
So step right up...step right up. Take a look and take a seat. The crowd whispers and whimpers and we're broken by the sound of her mother's weep.
And at exactly one o'clock she'll make herself ashes...by kicking the chair from underneath her feet.
Voilà
...Houdini.
