The Maharal (Reprise)

Your mother is dead and gone
 But I can see the lovely ghost
 That's you
 And I can hear her walk
 Behind you she walks
 You take just what you want
 And I agree with you, darling
 But I want you to know
 It's an ugly rock
 You're in for a shock
 My coat is long and black
 Like dreams collapsed with
 Things I want but can't get back
 I ain't got jack
 And all of this for nothing
 After all my huffing and puffing
 I'm back and forth
 And back and forth,
 To prove that I am not bluffing
 I am the Maharal
 I'm deep into the sod
 World of emanations
 World of creation
 World of formation
 World of action
 And the Sephirot
 I am the Maharal
 And the road is choked with dust
 The blood libels they go on and on
 Progroms on my heels
 More of these black eels
 My throat choked up with lust
 She's a memory fading on and on
 My wand can't wield
 Her from death's field
 Another knock on my door
 I see the inbred yawn
 But I don't fear the fool
 I fear his drool
