The character actor plays romantic leads and the kitten curls in wet anticipation, |
|
The opportunity is here. |
|

|
It's just a scene. |
|
The Maitre D' has seen it all before, the actor, the actress, the gigolo, the whore, |
|
Between the lines, between the sheets, there's no rehearsal, they make a deal, he'll soon be home. |
|
Living in Wonderland, the grass is so green, |
|
Tongue-tied, a dry mouth swallows a scream, |
|
Yours to pretend, it's yours to pretend, this trip never ends, it's coming at you |

A wall of horns, blasts away, and the exit road to Jericho stands steady, held in amber beams that play on misty screens and smoky cars whose occupants mouth curses at a world that doesn't hear |
|
Living in Wonderland, the grass is so green, |
|
Tongue-tied, a dry mouth swallows a scream, |
|
Yours to pretend, it's yours to pretend, this trip never ends, it's coming at you in 3D. |
