So many years have passed their prime
Exquisite skill for just one dime
Thankless inspiration dies with time

You're still chuffed to saw a girl in half
And sit still for a photograph
Or swallowing a sword until it splits your spine

Step right up, only if you dare
Burlesque legs kicking in the air
The magic man holds his hands up in despair

Irrelevant entertainment
Technology contains it
Insensitive to what used to be sublime
You better focus on what they're saying
And hear every note they'rе playing
The top hat rabbit man, he will not resign

All nеw ways to starve an artist and those who work the hardest
Your imagination struggles to pretend
Scars and burns from spitting fire and falling from high wire
The dead rise to exact Vaudeville's revenge

The roaring 20's soar with rage
Projeced onto the digital age
The decomposed prep the show backstage
And the house is packed against their will
The opening act attacks until the headliner, he moves in for the kill
Irrelevant entertainment
Technology contains it
Insensitive to what used to be sublime
You better focus on what they're saying
And hear every note they're playing
Because the underwater woman won't resign

All new ways to starve an artist and those who work the hardest
Your imagination struggles to pretend
Scars and burns from spitting fire and falling from high wire
The dead rise to exact Vaudeville's revenge

All new ways to starve an artist and those who work the hardest
Your imagination struggles to pretend
Scars and burns from spitting fire and falling from high wire
The dead rise to exact Vaudeville's revenge
Vaudeville's revenge
