BACKSTREET CABARET

From the 2002 release "Over Cloud Nine"

Cloud Nine Cover


Words and music by Danny Johnson and Merritt Morgan


In a backstreet cabaret before the moon starts to fade
suckin the soul of every young boy coming her way
read your book; the movies gonna have to wait
but you just can't beat the show of a backstreet cabaret
incents burning; shadows dancing on the wall
patiently hurting; a little lonely candle in the hall
waiting, waiting; fading, fading to a backstreet cabaret
looking for a potion; spellbound living just for fun
like a couple of hungry wolfs howling at the morning sun
waiting, waiting, fading, fading to a backstreet cabaret
I talked to the master of the universe
he said you couldn't move in reverse
let your mind flow over hills
country side calls in a distance
he speaks so loud
can't your hear your name
no, your not insane
but its your time for a change
backstreet cabaret
