Song: BADFLOWER - THE JESTER
"LIKE A JESTER AT THE BALL, RUB MY SHOULDERS WITH THE KINGS, I WAS DRAPED IN GOLD AND VELVET,BREATHING IN APPLAUSE, WHILE I WAS JUMPING THROUGH THE RINGS. AND THEN THE COOKS WOULD SOUND A BELL, AND ALL THE KINGS WOULD LICK THEIR LIPS, BUT I COULDN'T FIND A PLACEMAT, THE DINNER TABLES FULL, AND THERE'S NO ROOM FOR ME TO SIT. IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE LOOKING OUT FOR ME? JUST SAY YOU WANT ME, JUST SAY YOU NEED ME, IS EVERY LAST SOUL JUST FUCKING ME OVER? WITH TEARS ON THEIR SHOES, AND ICE ON THEIR SHOULDERS. LORD I LIVE TO ENTERTAIN, ALL MY PRIDE IS IN MY PRAISE, I HUM ALONG WITH THIS VIBRATION, AND HOPE TO GOD I MAKE IT. IF ANY CHORD THAT I COULD STRUM, MAKE ME FEEL LESS LIKE A MAN, I'D SLAM MY FINGERS IN THE DOORWAY, AND SHATTER ALL THE BONES, SO I COULD NEVER STRUM AGAIN. IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE LOOKING OUT FOR ME? JUST SAY YOU WANT ME, JUST SAY YOU NEED ME. IS EVERY LAST SOUL JUST FUCKING ME OVER? WITH TEARS ON THEIR SHOES, AND ICE ON THEIR SHOULDERS."
