The Projector

Billy Saint Claire with the willowy air Breaks into Trinity Church on a dare Where the pastor hides a camera To capture the rapture the day that it comes But Billy gets afraid and he runs Don't look in the back room untll you get older Let the projector on over and over Over and over Enter the guests In their animal masks I remember the way the antelope danced With the goat, the dog, the catfish, the crows in the ballroom The night that we spied from the store room They lead from the hip And they spin from the shoulder Let the projector on over and over Over and over Just as long as you walk the earth Just as long as you walk the earth Just as long as you run those faces They'll follow you So we play out these parts In the relative dark They hand you a script And then they pick you a part Memorise all your lines And the most you can hope to be an extra If they let ya And then they find you in the bathtub Alone with the toaster Let the projector on over and over Over and over All the while you felt so alone All the while you felt so alone But all the while there were bugs in the phone And you were not alone... You're never alone You're not alone You're never alone You're not alone
