Once, I was so confused, beaten, broke and used

Now, I'm just living like a clown leading a flock of gypsy nouns

Who all believe in me and say they'll follow me

beyond the realm of here and now

Yeah I guess I'm just substantively

leading a flock of gypsy nouns beyond the here and now

I left my fear somehow at the bottom of a barrel of dread and doubt



Then on the day before I died I looked deep into your eyes

As you stood on the platform quite stagy

You were sweating from head to knee

A query yields a name

My reply was kind but lame

like waiting for the Sun to rise then wax and wane



I'm in a fairytale chasing a fairy's tail

I need a fairy



I did Brobdingnagian feats for you

Everything I knew how to do

Until you graced me with the time of day and a piece of mind

And when you took my name

I swore we'd live a life of fame and fortune

High above the Appalachian mountain range



I'm in a fairytale chasing a fairy's tail

I need a fairy
