After the Last Laugh

Here out past the tracks where the drunks collapse Old suckers can score on the indigent whores Way after the last laugh has swollen itself shut When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks The elegant whores are waiting inside One hundred dollars can buy you no time The teasing diseasing the carnival crowd Is waiting to blow out of this dead-end town Down deep in the sludge and the shit and the mud There's death in the air, and it don't belong there Where all the stray dogs, junkdogs and demons all tatter and shred Dispose of the dead and sift right through the crud and the slime While elegant whores are waiting inside Your one hundred dollars can buy you no time Teasing diseasing the carnival crowd Is waiting to blow out of this dead-end town After the last laugh has swollen and shrunk When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks After the last laugh has swollen and shrunk When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks After the last laugh has swollen and shrunk When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks After the last laugh has swollen and shrunk When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks One more time! After the last laugh has swollen and shut When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks
