Jokerman

[00:06:47] Standing on the waters casting your bread,

[00:06:47] While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing.,

[00:06:47] Distant ships sailing into the mist,,

[00:06:47] You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing.,

[00:06:47] Freedom just around the corner for you,

[00:06:47] But with the truth so far off, what good will it do?,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Ohhhhh, oh, oh,ohhhhh oh oh oh oh Jokerman.,,

[00:06:47] So swiftly the sun sets in the sky,,

[00:06:47] You rise up and say goodbye to no one.,

[00:06:47] Fools rush in where angels fear to tread,,

[00:06:47] Both of their futures, so full of dread, you don't show one.,

[00:06:47] Shedding off one more layer of skin,,

[00:06:47] Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within.,,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Oh, oh, oh, Jokerman.,,

[00:06:47] You're a man of the mountains, you can walk on the clouds,,

[00:06:47] Manipulator of crowds, you're a dream twister.,

[00:06:47] You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah,

[00:06:47] But what do you care? Ain't nobody there would want to marry your sister.,

[00:06:47] Friend to the martyr, a friend to the woman of shame,,

[00:06:47] You look into the fiery furnace, see the rich man without any name.,,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Oh, oh, oh, Jokerman.,,

[00:06:47] Well, the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy,,

[00:06:47] The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers.,

[00:06:47] In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,,

[00:06:47] Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.,

[00:06:47] Resting in the fields, far from the turbulent space,,

[00:06:47] Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face.,,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Oh. oh. oh. Jokerman.,,

[00:06:47] Well, the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame,,

[00:06:47] Preacherman seeks the same, who'll get there first is uncertain.,

[00:06:47] Nightsticks and water cannons, tear gas, padlocks,,

[00:06:47] Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain,,

[00:06:47] False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,,

[00:06:47] Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.,,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Oh, oh, oh, Jokerman.,,

[00:06:47] It's a shadowy world, skies are slippery gray,,

[00:06:47] A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet.,

[00:06:47] He'll put the priest in his pocket, put the blade to the heat,,

[00:06:47] Take the motherless children off the street,

[00:06:47] And place them at the feet of a harlot.,

[00:06:47] Oh, Jokerman, you know what he wants,,

[00:06:47] Oh, Jokerman, you don't show any response.,,

[00:06:47] Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune,,

[00:06:47] Bird fly high by the light of the moon,,

[00:06:47] Oh, oh, oh, Jokerman.
