1
If you ever come to our town
2
On a carousel crusade
3
And you're tired of fighting windmills with a nail
4
Cross the fence and join the dragons
5
Who have never made the grade
6
Caraâ"š¬â"ž¢s castle and the keepers of a most unholy grail.
7
Oh Cara, Queen of the losers, ruler of the weak
8
Give the poet what he chooses till he's too dumb to speak
9
There's a clock upon the mantle
10
But its hands forget the time
11
And the windows turn their backs upon the day
12
And the people in the shadows
13
Could be all lost friends of mine
14
Caraâ"š¬â"ž¢s courtiers need no light â"š¬" need no light to lose their way
15
Oh Cara, Queen of the losers, ruler of the weak
16
Give the poet what he chooses till he's too dumb to speak
17
From the end to the beginning
18
Crippled minds retrace the steps
19
From the burial to the birth they do retreat
20
Wonderinâ"š¬â"ž¢ where and when and why
21
Their souls were slaughtered while they slept
22
Caraâ"š¬â"ž¢s courtiers know no victory â"š¬" know no victory just defeat
23
Oh Cara, Queen of the losers, ruler of the weak
24
Give the poet what he chooses till he's too dumb to speak
25
One by one the battered soldiers
26
Go slowly cross the moat
27
One by one they seek new castles somewhere else
28
With their crutches and the cravens
29
And I wonder is there hope
30
Is there hope for Caraâ"š¬â"ž¢s courtiers â"š¬" and the wars against themselves
31
Oh Cara, Queen of the losers, ruler of the weak
32
Give the poet what he chooses till he's too dumb to speak
