[00:08.43]Night: her sable dome scattered with diamonds
[00:12.30]Fused my dust from a light year
[00:17.92]Squeezed me to her breast, sowed me with carbon
[00:21.77]Strung my warp across time
[00:27.37]Gave me each a horse, sunrise and graveyard
[00:31.26]Told me only I was her
[00:35.12]Bid me face the east closed me in questions
[00:39.5]Built the sky for my dawn...
[01:01.86]Cleaned my feet of mud, followed the empty
[01:05.44]Zebra ride to the Cirkus
[01:10.83]Past a painted cage, spoke to the pay box
[01:14.45]Glove which wrote on my tongue
[01:19.73]Pushed me down a slide to the arena
[01:23.33]Megaphonium fanfare
[01:26.97]In his cloak of words strode the ringmaster
[01:30.47]Bid me join the parade...
[02:06.63]"Worship!" cried the clown, "I am a T.V.
[02:10.2]Making bandsmen go clockwork
[02:15.51]See the slinky seal Cirkus policeman
[02:19.6]Bareback ladies have fish"
[02:24.38]Strongmen by his feet, plate-spinning statesman
[02:27.98]Acrobatically juggling
[02:31.54]Bids his tamers go quiet the tumblers
[02:35.19]Lest the mirror stop turning...
[03:43.62]Elephants forgot, force-fed on stale chalk
[03:47.20]Ate the floors of their cages
[03:52.68]Strongmen lost their hair, pay box collapsed and
[03:56.10]Lions sharpened their teeth
[04:01.47]Gloves raced round the ring, stallions stampeded
[04:05.13]Pandemonium seesaw...
[04:08.44]I ran for the door, ringmasters shouted
[04:12.34]"All the fun of the Cirkus!"
