Quiet, Please!

(album: Mulberry Street - 2005)

Quiet, please!
we'll soon begin
whisper if you need
to tell a friend a joke

quiet, please!
and listen up
feel free to grab the hand
of the person on your right

quiet, please!
save your applause
ushers shut your doors
as the curtain drops

did you read my mind?
did you miss your cue?
her knees are falling down
her fingers point to you
and flashing words
like crashing cars
you can't go home tonight
you can't go home tonight

the park is big
the reverend said
you'll find yourself when you lose
the stones you've been fed
quiet, please!

did you read my mind?
did you miss your cue?
her knees are falling down
her finger points to you
the park is big
the reverend said
you'll find yourself when you lose
the stones you've been fed
quiet, please!
