Triolet

Lyrics: John Perry Barlow
Music: Mike Bolger, Paul Bolger, Mark Hague

One of the songs Barlow wrote with Mr Blotto

Lonely nights are here again
And all I need is one more drink
Someone's found a brand new friend
Lonely nights are here again
I guess that brings us room to breath
I guess that gives me time to think
Lonely nights are here again
And all I need is one more drink

Falling down
Like wind through the mouth of a chime
La, la, la
The carnival slithers through time
You can win every cheap game they get you to play

This roadside attractions
This tent full of marvels
This busload of monsters
This medecine show
Their broken calliope
Lured me like sirensong
Pierced by deception
I sank, and sank like a stone

Now the glitter's settling
Comes a time to pay the rent
The barker came and stole my soul
He guessed her weight and off they went
