A Bolanic revision of Orpheus Descending



Prince of Players, Pawn of none

Born with steel reins on the heart of the Sun

Gypsy explorer of the New Jersey Heights

Exalted companion of cocaine nights



'Cos he's a Dandy in the Underworld

Dandy in the Underworld

When will he come up for air,

Will anybody ever care



At an old eighteen exiled he was

To the deserted kingdoms of a mythical Oz

Distraction he wanted, to destruction he fell

Now he forever stalks the ancient

Mansions of hell



Now his lovers have left him

And his youth's ill spent

He cries in the dungeons and tries to repent

But change is a monster and changing is hard

But he'll freeze away his summers in his

Underground yard
