Lyrics
[Verse 1]
After me is too sick to mention
Second-story clowns get sent in
After me, who would believe it?
Who's seen it?
[Chorus]
Sliding off the coping
For shaking hands to open
I can't tell if you are joking
[Verse 2]
Had the gift of gab, you cursed me
The rule was turn away the thirsty
Had twenty eyes and glazed a clear view
How did you?
[Chorus]
Sliding off the coping
For a shaking mind to open
I just hope that you are joking
[Bridge]
And the best will go unspoken
And it's best that goes unspoken
[Verse 3]
Slay the final boss and lose you
Find a ceiling you can fall through
It suits you
[Chorus]
Sliding off the coping
For a shaking mind to open
I just hope that you are joking
[Outro]
All the rest will go unspoken
All the rest will go unspoken
