SLOAN lyrics : "the marquee and the moon"

(C. Murphy/Sloan)




Cabaret license


I haven't been by since

It goes against all that I've learned


But it seems that the tables have turned




But could we have stopped it


We all get co-opted


To some kind of system it seems

But they can't take away


Can't take away all our dreams




Like the one where I'm in a balloon


Floating above I can see the Marquee and the Moon


The monkey, the dog and Neptune







They're all in good spirits

I'm happy to hear it


But haven't the sweetest idea


To me buzz is onomatopoeia




Will something be happening soon


To settle the difference between the Marquee and the Moon

They're passing the torch, knife and spoon









And so it goes

I guess there are those


Who want to get out like me


Yeah




Their clientele


Can go to Hell

If they want to get in for free


But Hell ain't a bad place to be


Yeah



Am I any different than either the Moon or Marquee


Oh, not a lot if you ask me




Cabaret license

I've been coming by since

The action continued past two


Before this what did we used to do
