The Prelude: A History Lesson

lyrics

Ladies and Gentlemen, my friends.
Welcome to the circus, where it all begins.

From the depths of the darkest darkness
In a city of success and sin
Lived a boy with a dream, drive, and esteemed
Want to change the world through the silver screen
Come on….Dream on

Followin his fathers footsteps,
Will he trail on his papa’s coat tails?
We’ll see …what will be….yes we will indeed.

Bridge 1.
His papa got drunk on alcohol and fame
They found him in the trunk of his Cadallac Escalade.
It was a messy day.


Bridge 2.
The man’s death was kept undercover
Left weeping was a child and a mother
Shame they could never place the blame
All that was left was a has-been’s insurance claim.

Instrumental break:

Chorus:
Relax, take off your cool and slip in
To your brand spankin’ new celebrity skin
Does it fit? Is it loose? or do you need a lift?
Nose too big? We’ll shrink it and blow up your tits!

Instrumental Break:

Alt. Bridge 3.
He was slowing the train, they’ll never catch me.
He couldn’t handle his fame, so don’t blame me.
I had to save my name, before he sunk me.
You might’ve done the same, so don’t judge me.

Chorus:
Relax, take off your cool and slip in
To your brand spankin’ new celebrity skin
Does it fit? Is it loose? or do you need a lift?
Nose too big? We’ll shrink it and blow up your tits!
