1
Onward! And Onward! And Onward I go
2
Where no man before could be bothered to go
3
Till the soles of my shoes are shot full of holes
4
And it's all downhill with a bullet
5
This ramblin' and rovin' has taken its course
6
I'm grazing with the dinosaurs and the dear old horses
7
And the city streets crack and a great hole forces
8
Me down with my soapbox, my pulpit
9
The the theatre ceiling is silver star-spangled
10
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
11
There's a man in the theatre with girlish eyes
12
Who's holding my childhood to ransom
13
On the screen there's a death, there's a rustle of cloth
14
And a sickly voice calling me handsome
15
There's a man in the theatre with sly girlish eyes
16
On the screen there's an ape, a gorilla
17
There's a groan, there's a cough, there's a rustle of cloth
18
And a voice that stinks of death and vanilla
19
This is a secret, mauled and mangled
20
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
21
The walls of the ceiling are painted in blood
22
The lights go down, the red curtains come apart
23
The room is full of smoke and dialogue I know by heart
24
And the coins in my pocket jingle-jangle
25
As the great screen crackled and popped
26
The clock of my boyhood was wound down and stopped
27
And my handsome little body oddly propped
28
And my trousers right down to my ankles
29
Yes, it's onward! And upward!
30
And I'm off to find love
31
Do you love me? If you do, I'm thankful
32
This city is an ogre squatting by the river
33
It gives life but it takes it away, my youth
34
There comes a time when you just cannot deliver
35
This is a fact. This is a stone cold truth.
36
Do you love me?
37
I love you, handsome
38
But do you love me?
39
Yes, I love you, you are handsome
40
Amongst the cogs and the wires, my youth
41
Vanilla breath and handsome apes with girlish eyes
42
Dreams that roam between truth and untruth
43
Memories that become monstrous lies
44
So onward! And Onward! And Onward I go!
45
Onward! And Upward! And I'm off to find love
46
With blue-black braclets on my wrists and ankles
47
And the coins in my pocket go jingle-jangle
