Madman’s Masquerade
Madman’s Masquerade
Flitting through the crowds
Elated spirits, high clouds
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
Straight from the shows
Rolling with the blows
Spick and span
All year tan
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
Minds out of space!
Enjoy it while it while it lasts
Actors all, part of the casts
That act around you
But I can see through
That false smile
To the true vile
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
His emotionless grace
The entertaining joyous flow
Is pretence a parody, a show
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
Fake through and through
But I’ll smile just for you
But I want you dead
Or beside me in bed
Love and War
Across the floor
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
The Joker, King, Ace.
Playing along with the game
When others are tired or lame
Face the masked face
Try to keep the pace
Gamble all to win
Sneers an evil grin
Bad luck please try again
Don’t think of the pain
Fun to be had
He’s Mad Bad.
Face the masked face

Mind’s out of Space!
