[Verse 1]
When lost in the wild rain there is nothing you can do
When lost in city rain there is something you can do
Take a refuge wherever’s marked "Admission Free"
As we did one night in late ‘63
I'd never seen the man on the poster before
But my friend said he was a big star before the war
[Verse 2]
The boy by the door, louder than a bomb
All the way down the street, you heard his song
"Roll up, roll up, tonight is the night
Freddy Fürst's gives his last will live on stage
Roll up, roll up, for the show of a lifetime
Doors open at quarter to 8"
[Verse 3]
Satin upholstery that was once brilliant
We picked it's loose stuffing and looked around
There were duchesses and dukes, and beggars and pimps
All sat side-by-side to watch his last grasp at life
The grand centrepiece was a gold-green sarcophagus
Flanked either side by oil paint pictures of the man
First of all, a film tried to explain his lifelong dream
Afterward, music started and a young girl ran on with operatic screams
When lost in the wild rain there is nothing you can do
When lost in city rain there is something you can do
Take a refuge wherever’s marked "Admission Free"
As we did one night in late ‘63
I'd never seen the man on the poster before
But my friend said he was a big star before the war
[Verse 2]
The boy by the door, louder than a bomb
