Verset 1
EThey're selling postcards of the hanging
They're Apainting the passports Ebrown
The B7beauty parlor is filled with sailors
A The circus is in Etown
EHere comes the blind commissioner
AThey've got him in a Etrance
One B7hand is tied to the tightrope walker
A The other is in his Epants
And the Ariot squad, they're restless
They Eneed somewhere to Ago
As Elady and I look B7out tonight from
A Desolation ERow
Verset 2
ECinderella, she seems so easy
It Atakes one to know one she Esmiles
IEnside of a leather Acup
And B7puts her hands in her back pockets
A Bette Davis styleE
And Ein comes Romeo, he's moaning
You Abelong to me I beElieve
And B7someone says you're in the wrong place my friend
A You'd better leEave
And the Aonly sound that's left
EAfter the ambulances Ago
Is ECinderella B7sweeping up on
A Desolation ERow
Verset 3
Now the Emoon is almost hidden
The Astars are beginning to Ehide
The B7fortune telling lady
Has Aeven taken all her things inEside
All exEcept for Cain and Abel
And the AHunchback of Notre-EDame
B7Everybody is making love
Or Aelse expecting Erain
And the AGood Samaritan, he's dressing
He's gettin' Eready for the Ashow
It Etakes one to know one she Asmiles
He's Egoing to the B7carnival tonight on
A Desolation ERow
Verset 4
OEphelia, she's 'neath the window
For Aher I feel so aEfraid
On herB7 twenty-second birthday
She alAready is an old Emaid
To Eher, death is quite romantic
She Awears an iron Evest
Her B7profession's her religion
Her Asin is her lifelessEness
And Athough her eyes are fixed upon
And Efishermen hold Aflowers
ENoah's great rainAbow
She Espends her time B7peeking into
ADesolation REow
Verset 5
EEinstein disguised as Robin Hood
With his Amemories in a Etrunk
B7Passed this way an hour ago
With his Afriend a jealous Emonk
He Elooked so immaculately frightful
As he Abummed a cigarEette
Then he B7went off sniffing drainpipes
And reAciting the alphaEbet
And Ethen the keroAsene
You Awould not think to look at him
But he was Efamous long aAgo
For Eplaying the electric B7violin on
ADesolation REow
Verset 6
Dr. EFilth, he keeps his world
IAnside of a leather Ecup
For Eplaying the electric B7violin on
But B7all his sexless patients
They're Atrying to blow it up E
Now hisE nurse, some local loser
She's in Acharge of the cyanide Ehole
And she B7also keeps the cards that read
Have Amercy on his Esoul
AThey all play on the penny whistle
EYou can hear them Ablow
If you Elean your head oB7ut far enough from
A Desolation ERow
Verset 7
Across theE street they've nailed the curtains
They're gettin' Aready for the Efeast
The B7Phantom of the Opera
In a Aperfect image of a Epriest
Her Esin is her lifelessAness
They are Espoon feeding Casanova
To Aget him to feel more asEsured
Then they'll B7kill him with self-confidence
After pAoisoning him with wordEs
And the APhantom's shouting to skinny girls
Get Eoutta here if you don't Aknow
CasaEnova is just being B7punished for going
ATo Desolation ERow
Verset 8
At midEnight all the agents
And the Asuperhuman Ecrew
Come B7out and round up everyone
That Aknows more than they Edo
EThen they bring them to the factory
Where the Aheart attack maEchine
Is B7strapped across their shoulders
And Athen the keroEsene
They are Espoon feeding Casanova
Is Abrought down from the castles
By inEsurance men who Ago
Check to Esee that nobody is esB7caping to
ADesolation REow
Verset 9
Praise Ebe to Nero's Neptune
The TiAtanic sails at Edawn
B7Everybody's shouting
AWhich side are you Eon
Yes I Eknow them, they're quite Alame
And EEzra Pound and T.S. Eliot
AFighting in the captain'sE tower
While B7calypso singers laugh at them
And Afishermen hold Eflowers
BeAtween the windows of the sea
Where Elovely mermaids Aflow
And Enobody has to B7think too much about
A Desolation ERow

Verset 10
Yes I Ereceived your letter yesterday
About Athe time the door knob Ebroke
Now the Emoon is almost hidden
When you B7asked me how I was doing
Was Athat some kind of Ejoke
All these Epeople that you mention
Yes I Aknow them, they're quite Elame
I had to B7rearrange their faces
And give them Aall another naEme
ARight now I can't read too good
Don't Esend me no more letters, Ano
ENot unless you B7mail them from
ADesolation REow
