The Projector

Billy Saint Claire with the willowy air

Breaks into Trinity Church on a dare

Where the pastor hides a camera

To capture the rapture the day that it comes

But Billy gets afraid and he runs

Don't look in the back room untll you get older

Let the projector on over and over

Over and over

Enter the guests

In their animal masks

I remember the way the antelope danced

With the goat, the dog, the catfish, the crows in the ballroom

The night that we spied from the store room

They lead from the hip

And they spin from the shoulder

Let the projector on over and over

Over and over

Just as long as you walk the earth

Just as long as you walk the earth

Just as long as you run those faces

They'll follow you

So we play out these parts

In the relative dark

They hand you a script

And then they pick you a part

Memorise all your lines

And the most you can hope to be an extra

If they let ya

And then they find you in the bathtub

Alone with the toaster

Let the projector on over and over

Over and over

All the while you felt so alone

All the while you felt so alone

But all the while there were bugs in the phone

And you were not alone...

You're never alone

You're not alone

You're never alone

You're not alone
