A Golden Calf and Dancers

A golden calf and dancers Dancers seek salvation in the wonder of the wine Throwing poetry to dogs and pearls before the swine Musicians on the stage playing out their dirty soul for a golden calf and dancers as they dance on burning coal Overhead a blinding light kills the wisdom of the wise Noone is pretending or wearing a disquise Dancers burn like paper musicians underpaid All for fame and glory and a holy escapade Night gives birth to daybreak gods have gone to sleep Musicians singing softly as the dizzy dancers weep
