The Man Behind the Curtain
I have seen the man behind the curtain
I have looked into his hollow eyes
I have seen the man behind the curtain
I trembled when I heard his cries
I have seen the man behind the curtain
I have seen my own demise
I have seen the man behind the curtain
My journey here was most unwise
Dorothy sought out the man behind the curtain
For me he was an unwelcome surprise
I have seen the man behind the curtain
I bought in to his clever lies
I have seen the man behind the curtain
It is not chicken, but children he fries
I have seen the man behind the curtain
I asked a priest if he could exercise
I have seen the man behind the curtain
There is no redemption I surmise
I have seen the man behind the curtain
Now all I ever see are flies
I have seen the man behind the curtain
Mortality and time are my only allies
