Storyville Station Paul Shapera (Ft. Lauren Osborn)

[Constance]
The girl felt scared and so unsure
The tales they told, the thousand doors
She saw the wolf in the forest and bed
And thought, “it's better to be a wolf instead”

So she buys a ticket to Storyville Station
Where pages enfold the lost ones taken
And every day just goes by like a dream

Now the girl is a wolf full of fierce and guile
She hunts her prey and runs the wild
At last, though, she is caught by man
And now she sees an even better plan

So she buys a ticket to Storyville Station
Where the players are cast before they’ve awaken
And every day just goes by like a dream
And seem is not to be
Here now, here with me

As man, she is mighty and tames the land
‘til soldiers come and above her stand
But above the soldiers, a general sits
Who takes his orders straight from a Prince
