Moon's a yellow omelet

Lighting up a silhouette

Chimney or a cigarette

Thought I saw it die

Of happiness or sadness

Or maybe the madness

Smokin' Yankee gun!


Pierrot Lunaire!!

Can't get you outta my hair

Clown cares not to cry

Painted leper wants to die


Ancient clown's a dreamweaver

Cut up by a meat cleaver

Totally atonal

Consonantly dissonant

A murderous violin immoral

A Hollywood Viennese immigrant

Fear the number 13!


Pierrot Lunaire!!

Can't get you outta my hair

Beau comme Giraud

Tourne et retourne mon bateau


A rhyme in mime

Painter of space and time

Cosmic bursts of anger and pain

A nightingale drinking rain

A black hole consuming all

The pride before the fall

Help, I've fallen!


Pierrot Lunaire!!

Can't get you outta my hair

Twelve tone temper tantrum in six-eight time

Haunting melody floating into memory
