The Big Stupid Show

from In the Garden of Panopticon by BAAN

/

lyrics

The bus like a rhino
Two in a row, just like the winos
Stuck on the top floor
Over the engine
The bar will open just for them
But they mustn’t get there too soon
Lest they be caught by the moon
End up looking just like fools
Like drunken fools

Crossing the road
Crossing the road where Margaret fell
She fell through heaven
She fell through this world
She fell right into hell
It’s raining now and Margaret’s gone
These many long years
But still she’s gone
At least they made the crossing safe
But for those who might still fall
Like painted clowns

Where we go
No-one will ever know
Here we go
The big stupid show

The floor is gabardine carpet
The walls are plugging up their ears
There’s a meeting in the mezzanine
There’s Julie reading a magazine
There’s William arguing the toss
They nod and drool, about their loss
Here comes nobody’s big boss
He used to be George, but now he’s Ross

Where we go
No-one will ever know
Here we go
The big stupid show

Where we go
No-one will ever know
Here we go
The big stupid show

One more time
Just one more time
One more time
One more time
