Do a little dance around the table
 
 Tell a little tale about despair
 
 Keep in mind you never had a weakness
 
 Or at least one you never had to share
 
  
  This is not a story or a fable
 
 Not even substance for a stare
 
 A desperate cry for hope and reason
 
 These feelings catch you unaware
  
 
 When they've collected all your tragic endings
 
 And they feel the every move you make
 
 You look behind to see the traces
 
 Of your latest mistake
  
 
 Between the late and early morning
 
 You pull the cover from the chair
 
 And you take the pieces from the package
 
 And you place them somewhere over there
  
 
 When they've collected all your tragic endings
 
 And they feel the every move you make
 
 You look behind to see the traces
 
 Of your latest mistake
  
 
 Am I your living proof of purchase
 
 With sorry notes we do compare
 
 The prickly pear the shitty season
 
 The overwhelming sense of fair play
  
 
 When they've collected all your tragic endings
 
 And they feel the every move you make
 
 You look behind to see the traces
 
 Of your latest mistake
