Verse one:
-------------
                                     
Here on    the stage the time has come
                                 
    With the strains on "Be My Angel" of rock in 2/4
                            
Time may keep alive that old swan song
                                             
    That we've been playing forever
                                             
'Till the time may be right to say goodbye
                                         
     My voice is aching,        I'm tongue tired,
                                                            
    And the sounds we are making are so...


Chorus:
----------

Goodnight song
                
   Played so   wrong
                            
   Blame the crowd
          
They scream so loud so long

Verse two:
--------------

        Get some honesty
                                        
Take the best of me and then the rest let go
                    
In every situation with its tireless rage
                                          
Step outside your cage and let the real fool show (the real fool show)
  
I should have stayed 'round to break the ice
                            
I thought about it once or twice
                                                                      
But nothing ever changes unless there's some pain and our...
