come to stand center stage white garish paint on thin hand thin black mask for a face he stands in the fading light dusty serene silences surround him with deep words paused on his wooden lips speak now oh devilish masked man in this passion play speak to the fathers plots and treason's folly is his candy trickster lover saint fathers and other clowns pour over the construction blueprints of better living through chemicals while the girl in the passion play sneaks out the window to find her song in the silence of pantomime find her pretty face masked in feathers so lovely she awaits her lover beneath painted moon harlequin and the servant slap with a stick comedy and silently chased by the policeman run amok on the worlds stage come children of all ages see the show silly and sad fun and adventure as harlequin and his lover regale you with the tale tricking father and the clown to sad defeats harlequin, harlequin where for art thou harlequin here you fool slapping the cow on the moon with my stylish stick folly is his candy trickster lover saint
