You're lost, little girl You shouldn't have come here And I sure ain't in the mood To make new friends Go home, little girl The shadow's drawing near And you all alone We both know how this ends Let's see how far she bends We all know how this ends Thanks for the welcome It's my first time here You've made your feelings for me crystal clear You play your show I'll just go grab a beer Didn't come here to quarrel with you Love what you've done here This place comes up well You've nailed the theme It really feels like hell Guess you're not looking for new clientele Just as well That's a five-star review Let's try the easy way Hear what I have to say They get younger every year Little bigshots that drift through here Think they're bringing something new through the door And you've heard it A thousand times before Honey I've heard it A thousand times before Honey I've heard it A thousand times Your hosting skills could use a bit more pluck About as subtle as a garbage truck Thanks all for coming but your next guest sucks Lacks something, don't you think? Is there nothing she can't do? She's a half-ass standup comic too On the lookout for some cheap points to score Oh honey, we've heard it A thousand times before (honey, we've heard it) Honey we've heard it (a thousand times before) A thousand times Okay, she's seen it all and she's not sold But there's what, a hundred people here, all told Anybody else here who's a billion years old? Does she speak for you? Don't you have any idea what you're dealing with, child? Surprise! Surprise! Coins on your eyes! Give them to the ferryman Get it in your little head You're spitting at the queen Of the dead You're not my queen, P, I'm alive You got a real-life muse in this basement dive You could use a boost, should I play a gig? Hey, word of mouth works, P, it'll be big! They get dumber every year (I'm a flower that you're picking, not a stick on the ground) Little big shots (but come hither and consider that we shiver while you whither as you dither around) No idea what they're all headed for (uh oh! Uh oh!) A black river Bleached bones along the shore (let's end this pointless little sham) Let's show her something (you want to see who I am) She's never seen before A choir of the dead? That's it? Oh dear Old dog, old tricks, ghosts appear I got a real live choir right here, want to hear? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Now that's what I call a show! Every single one of them a star Hey! Maybe it's you who doesn't know Who they are Who they are Every night they come in here (dance and stamp your feet!) Spend their money on your beer (as your skin rots off in sheets) Are they even in the frame? (You'll be back at my door) Do you know a single name? (Deep below the floor) They just come here to forget How it ends! You got a bed in that office? Need a lie down? Crawl into your coffin deep underground? What's got into you? They're hating your thing Old lady winter, we want a new spring! Say my name! (Grace!) Say my name! (Grace!) Say my name! (Grace!) It's the same schtick every year All that blame and bitterness and fear You forgot what they're crazy hungry for Something they haven't seen (a thousand times before) A thousand times before (someone new) Someone they haven't seen (a thousand times before) A thousand times before
