Dead Man On Campus movie - When the Curtain Calls for You lyrics

rate me

Song by Jonathan Fire*Eater<br /><br>

What do children do with these colors so hallow<br>

Yes I know their will is true<br>

But their throats must hurt to swallow<br>

Like an orphan with his gruel<br>

In a theater oh so cruel<br>

What do children do<br>

<br>

I saw some faces today, they smiled<br>

They smiled at me and you be the bay in the maple trees<br>

Nothing in their faces looked real real real to me and you<br>

But I'm gonna keep it with me anyway<br>

What do children do do do<br>

What do children do do do<br>

<br>

So when the curtain parts for you and the tiers are full of laughter<br>

Ah, you will come in bloom<br>

And I'll be up there somewhere<br>

Just hanging from the rafters<br>

I'll be swinging from the rafters for you<br>

And we'll make the movie with Victorian steeples<br>

My heart under all these people<br>

<br>

Like a sugar cake can look so good on a china plate<br>

It makes the world seem sweeter now<br>

Mary's on the swings<br>

But I'm on the grass<br>

Nothing will pass<br>

<br>

So give me my coat and hand me my camera<br>

And we'll shoot the film with lighting tender<br>

With a beautiful hymn that's how I'd like to remember<br>

The perfect pretender<br>

Whose movie is about to begin<br>

With another lovely hymn and I'm ready now<br>

And the show was oh so precious<br>

Oh so precious tonight<br>

<br>

<br>
