Look at them go, the rabbits in town
Look at them go, the rabbits in town
With their scarves and their smiles and such
With their scarves and their smiles and such
As they walk unaware, and with zero despair
As they walk unaware, and with zero despair
For and of the one they wouldn't touch
For and of the one they wouldn't touch
As he rushes through sidewalks and back alleys too
As he rushes through sidewalks and back alleys too
In a quest for the senses he craves
In a quest for the senses he craves
And he doesn't complain, for he's not as insane
And he doesn't complain, for he's not as insane
As the ones better off for the grave
As the ones better off for the grave
And yet still they look at him, wondering aloud
And yet still they look at him, wondering aloud
Why he is slowly unravelling apart
Why he is slowly unraveling apart
And he wishes so fraught he'll reveal himself not
And he wishes so fraught he'll reveal himself not
To the one who has gone and has captured his heart
To the one who has gone and has captured his heart
Why was he not made of stone like thee
Why was he not made of stone like thee
Why was he not spared these sights to see
Why was he not spared these sights to see
And yet like a play, and right there on cue
And yet like a play, and right there on cue
She turns right round the corner to see
She turns right around the corner to see
Our lad poorly dressed and in states of distress
Our lad poorly dressed and in states of distress
And embarrassed as he can be
And embarrassed as he can be
And he forces a smile and makes an attempt
And he forces a smile and makes an attempt
To seem casual, calmer and cool
To seem casual, calmer and cool
And his confidence fades, and his hand's overplayed
And his confidence fades, and his hand's overplayed
And he laughs like a vacuous mule
And he laughs like a vacuous mule
And they talk for a minute, and then she departs
And they talk for a minute, and then she departs
For the pastures so full and so emerald green
For the pastures so full and so emerald green
And he wistfully stares as she walks through the square
And he wisely stares as she walks through the square
Feeling unworthy and so unclean
Feeling unworthy and so unclean
Why was he not made of stone like thee
Why was he not made of stone like thee
Why was he not frozen like a tree
Why wasn't he frozen like a tree?
He's made of flesh
He's made of flesh
He's made of bone
He's made of bone
Don't talk to me
Don't talk to me
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
He should be strong
He should be strong
He should be tall
He should be tall
He isn't calm
He isn't calm
No, not at all
No, not at all
Even the brightest room
Even the brightest room
Is painted several shades of doom
Is painted several shades of doom
The simplest task
The simplest task
Is far too much to ask
Is far too much to ask
how he sulks, and how he bemoans
how he sulks, and how he bemoans
That she saw him in this state of dread
That she saw him in this state of dread
Not worthy and clean, as he'd like to be seen
Not worthy and clean, as he'd like to be seen
But in his rogue and unseemly threads
But in his rogue and unseemly threads
And he stares at the ancient cathedrals of yore
And he stares at the ancient cathedrals of Yore
And the gargoyles, stately and grim
And the gargoyles, stately and grim
Looking stony and hard as they easily guard
Looking stony and hard as they easily guard
Against demons and hunters of him
Against demons and hunters of him
They've no time for feeling and no time for love
They've no time for feeling and no time for love
And they've no time at all for the vile and weak
And they've no time at all for the vile and weak
As he sits and he wonders, it rains and it thunders
As he sits and he wonders, it rains and it thunders
He doesn't, for hours, dare contemplate speak
He doesn't, for hours, dare consider speaking
'I should be up there for all to see
'I should be up there for everyone to see
Why was I not made of stone like thee'
Why wasn't I made of stone like thee?
