Lady Macbeth In Chains

Open on Broadway, you're a star Just an opportunist at heart Evil hid in glitz and glamour Drunk like a potion harvester All about Eve, cat up a tree Margo Channing, listen to me Don't believe what she says When she sleeps in your head Now the two allegories of pity and terror One for the money, for trial and error Telling the story, anointing its pleasure Lady Macbeth in chains Once in a lifetime, you're a star A circus of light falling apart Just as the flame is on the reservoir The darkness arises so much brighter All about Eve, queen tragedy All that you need is a throne to receive Now, go sleep in the bed That you made while she bled From her open wounds Two categories tell two different stories One for ambition, and one full of glory Backstabbing feeds on its own inventory Lady Macbeth in chains Lady Macbeth in chains
