Raindrops hit the window, plap, plap, plap.
Thunder rolling with a green glow, clap, clap, clap.
Don’t listen to the voices, it’s a trap, trap, trap.
They’ll make you lose your mind in a snap, snap, snap!
AH! The faces in the window pane
Remind me of my former name
Prefer to be left in the rain
Than a product of my former fame.
I can’t be the girl of your dreams
But I can take you behind the scenes
Of the BIGGEST FREAKSHOW IN TOWN.
Welcome to the Freak Show.
We’re here to change what you know
About the life of the devastated
Yes, you’ll see.
My murder was premeditated,
By me.
“We’re here today to mourn the loss,
Of a bright young girl with the Celtic Cross.
She got good grades and went to school.
She never forgot the golden rule.”
But yesterday she bit the dust,
And now her body has no bust.
Her legs grow hair and her face does too
While her body shifts into something new.
No longer “She” of hollow name,
Instead he’s HE and not a dame.
Mourn her loss but leave me be,
No one knows who I am but ME.
Welcome to the Freak Show.
We’re here to change what you know
About the life of the devastated.
Yes, you’ll see.
My murder was premeditated, by ME.
About the Creator
Arthur Armstrong
A being of duality, poetic irreverence, and maddening nonsense.
