Lyrics

And so the story goes they wore the clothes
 They said the things to make it seem improbable
 The whale of a lie like they hope it was
 ♪
 And the Goodmen Tomorrow
 Had their feet in the wallow
 And their heads of Brawn were nicer shorn
 And how they bought their positions with saccharin and trust
 And the world was asleep to our latent fuss
 
 Sighing, the swirl through the streets
 Like the crust of the sun
 The Bewlay Brothers
 In our Wings that Bark
 Flashing teeth of Brass
 Standing tall in the dark
 Oh, And we were Gone
 Hanging out with your Dwarf Men
 We were so turned on
 By your lack of conclusions
 ♪
 I was Stone and he was Wax
 So he could scream, and still relax, unbelievable
 And we frightened the small children away
 ♪
 And our talk was old and dust would flow
 Thru our veins and Lo! it was midnight
 Back at the kitchen door
 Like the grim face on the Cathedral floor
 And the solid book we wrote
 Cannot be found today
 
 And it was Stalking time for the Moonboys
 The Bewlay Brothers
 With our backs on the arch
 In the Devil-may-be-here
 But He can't sing about that
 Oh, And we were Gone
 Real Cool Traders
 We were so Turned On
 You thought we were Fakers
 ♪
 Now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned
 The Factor Max that proved the fact
 Is melted down
 And woven on the edging of my pillow
 ♪
 Now my Brother lays upon the Rocks
 He could be dead, He could be not
 He could be You
 He's Chameleon, Comedian, Corinthian and Caricature
 Shooting-up Pie-in-the-Sky
 The Bewlay Brothers
 In the feeble and the Bad
 Bewlay Brothers
 In the Blessed and Cold
 In the Crutch-hungry Dark
 Was where we flayed our Mark
 Oh, and we were Gone
 Kings of Oblivion
 We were so Turned On
 In the Mind-Warp Pavilion
 Lay me place and bake me Pie
 I'm starving for me Gravy
 Leave my shoes, and door unlocked
 I might just slip away, hey
 Just for the Day, Hey!
 Hey, Please come Away, Hey!
 Just for the Day, Hey!
 Please come Away, Hey!
 Please come Away, Hey!
 Just for the Day
 Please come Away
 Please come Away
 Please come Away
 Please come Away
 Away
 (Away)
 Away
 Hey
