The Mousetrap(Caught In)

[00:00:00] The Mousetrap (Caught In) (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill

[00:00:01] After all is said and done

[00:00:10] Not very much will have been either way:

[00:00:19] I'm a chronicler of action

[00:00:24] I'm an actor in the play

[00:00:29] I know the lines I have to speak

[00:00:39] I know that I won't ever quit corpse or dry

[00:00:47] But the performance gets so pointless

[00:00:52] And the days just drift on by

[00:00:57] Every time that I go to turn the pages of the calendar

[00:01:06] In the third act of this twenty-ninth year of the show

[00:01:15] I'm aware of the latest leading lady and get mad at her

[00:01:26] It's perfunctory but why she'll never know

[00:02:16] When I began I had my hopes

[00:02:27] Believed that I could be a leading light of the stage

[00:02:36] But now I've stunned myself to silence

[00:02:40] Exhausted all my inner rage

[00:02:45] Extinguished all my joy and violence

[00:02:49] Trapped all my feelings in a cage

[00:02:54] And every time that I go to turn the pages of the calendar

[00:03:02] I can see that I'm not really going anywhere;

[00:03:11] All these years I have skirted round experience like a scavenger

[00:03:20] Can I really feel I wonder if I dare

[00:03:29] At the end of the run will there be anyone who cares

[00:03:40] And behind the actor's pose heaven knows

[00:03:46] If there's anyone left in there
