Tommy Lee Jones Strikes Back: Part II

from There's a Yeti on My Couch by Opa Yeti

/

about

inspired by Tommy Cooper

lyrics

the actor stops
halfway through
act two
and falls to the ground

the crowd, amused
laughs and applauds
and orders
another round

all they wanted was a mindless evening,
no reminder of life's brevity
put off thinking just a little longer
and make that drink a little stronger

I watch the theater get small
now I see the joke of it all
life's sweetest with a grain of salt
the world keeps spinning 'round
after the fourth wall comes down

the curtain falls
the lights come up
a man
walks out on stage

"the show will not
continue, for
he reached
his final page"

you can come for a sense of comfort
but you'll still confront mortality
separated from the daily struggle
no escape from reality
