lyrics

Rachael:

What a show you missed they say
The clowns have come to tear down the play
The comedy where no one laughed
And no one came, and no one clapped

It borke down the last mile and the one time they smiled
Was when the sets were torn down and on fire

Come cry for the play, the bad lives and bad taste
There’s nothing here that you wanted anyway
Come cry for the play the sad lives and the waste
It’s the show here that no one saw anyway

What a show you missed they say
The band is done and left the stage
They played a gig where no one went
Their final one, they won’t play again

There’s no cat calls or fans, the one time that they dance
Was when the song stopped and silence began

Come cry for the play, the bad lives and bad taste
There’s nothing here that you wanted anyway
Come cry for the play the sad lives and the waste
It’s the show here that no one saw anyway


Come, come get me. Come get me.
Come, come get me. Come get me.

Come cry for the play, the bad lives and bad taste
There’s nothing here that you wanted anyway
Come cry for the play the sad lives and the waste
It’s the show here that no one saw anyway
