The Conqueror Worm - Lou Reed[00:00:01]

Lo It's a gala night[00:00:08]

A mystic throng bedecked[00:00:11]

Sit in a theater to see[00:00:14]

A play of hopes and fears[00:00:15]

While the orchestra breathes fitfully[00:00:17]

The music of the spheres[00:00:19]

Mimes mutter and mumble low[00:00:32]

Mere puppets they who come and go[00:00:34]

Disguised as gods[00:00:36]

They shift the scenery to and fro[00:00:37]

Inevitably trapped by invisible wo[00:00:39]

This motley drama[00:01:11]

To be sure[00:01:13]

Will not be forgotten[00:01:13]

A phantom chased for evermore[00:01:16]

Never seized by the crowd[00:01:18]

Through they circle[00:01:19]

Returning to the same spot[00:01:20]

Circle and return to the selfsame spot[00:01:22]

Always to the selfsame spot[00:01:25]

With much of madness and more of sin[00:01:28]

And horror and mimic rout[00:01:30]

The soul of the plot[00:01:32]

Out[00:01:36]

Out are the lights[00:01:37]

Out all[00:01:40]

And over each dying form[00:01:40]

The curtain a funeral pall[00:01:43]

Comes with the rush of a storm[00:01:45]

The angels haggard and wan[00:01:48]

Unveiling and uprising affirm[00:01:50]

That the play is the tragedy man[00:01:52]

And its hero the conqueror worm[00:01:56]
