though placed as track 9 on the cd...it was written simultaneously with "Open House"... pretty much as a "play by play" description to the life-events of that time...
lyrics
If life’s a stage i ask who built and can we tear it down?
My life is like a parade of horses and I’m the shoveling clown
Who wrote this script and can we line them up against the wall?
I used to have them memorized now I don’t them at all
And I hate the way we’re acting and the way we act at all
I’m I over reacting if I let the curtain fall?
Break down the set pick up the pieces everyone has all gone home
I lost myself my confidence has upped and gone
The circuits tripped auto-cue has gone AWOL
Loosen grip let the final curtain fall
Because I hate the way we’re acting and the way we act at all
I’m I over reacting if I let the curtain fall
And I hate the way we’re acting and the way we act at all
