Secret Theatre

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life

Yea, i’ve seen a trick or two

But a common theme in deceiving machines is the point of which you see through

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life

Yea, i’ve seen a trick or two

But as far as i know you only show the things that make you seem true

Its words were long and twisted

Like his shadow in the night

And as lucifer lit the lanterns

Shown over his pen in flight

Corpus was a century where he first learned to spin the word

But beyond the walls lay riches

But his taste much preferred

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life

Yea, i’ve seen a trick or two

But a common theme in deceiving machines is the point of which you see through

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life

Yea, i’ve seen a trick or two

But as far as i know you only show the things that make you seem true

While singing came the calling

Inspired them to create

So we dropped the pen and he fled instead

Over the cambridge gates

A cool head on his shoulders

And if i pull easy hand

Corpus lay in the shadows

While it fought for the english brand

Come quick as the crimson pours

Face down in it, every bar

But the slice of fries is blade, seems to me to be all too bizarre

Either way, the bill got paid

Then my little pain is due

And i’d have swallowed the whole damn lot

Had i not seen a trick or two

Some say he chanced his luck

The next day that ensured the bound

Venus and adonis, chance there’s two

And headed back the other way around

Panning in the venetian sun

It’s brown, not even scarred

Almost as hard to believe

As the very notion of his drop foot bard

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life

I’ve seen a trick or two in my life
