The Birthday Party

The Birthday Party - Jennifer's Veil songtekst

Je score:


so you've come back for Jennifer

you know, she hides her face behind a veil

I'm warning you Frankie, leave on the next train

your Jennifer she just isn't the same

quit waving that thing about! come back!

come back and give me a chance to explain

your baby will never cry again. 



so don't try to reach out

and don't let the ship's flag down

point the figure-head at the storm

and drive her hard upon

don't stop and don't stop

and don't let the veil drop

(another ship ready to sail--the rigging is tight

tight like Jennifer's veil). 



she drew the curtain on her face

ever since they came and burnt the old place down

why is she searching through the ashes?

why, only Jennifer knows that now.

and the officer, without a word,

left all his junk and just moved out. 



so don't try to reach out

and don't let the ship's flag down

point the figure-head at the glass

smash! smash! into shards

don't stop and don't touch!

and don't let the veil drop...behind Jennifer's veil 



oh god! Frankie! is that really you!

get back! don't reach out!

get back, and get that lantern out of my room! 



don't try to reach out

and don't let the ship's flag down

down, down over her, like a shroud 



and let her sail on the sea like a stone.

don't touch and don't touch

and don't let the veil drop

another ship ready to dock...the rigging comes loose...
