No man is an island? Perhaps that was true a long time ago
Before the Ice Age
The glaciers have melted away and we're all islands
I guess there's gonne be more elbow room than I thought
He yelled something about (yeah?) how the magician does it
Before he was ... and now he's...
Before I could stop him, he ran away towards the river
I want to talk to you about that house down the river
The magician
Must I tell you again? He's cheap in my rate of exchange, but our lives aren't
Your rate of exchange? You make me laugh! If you had any guts...
Look, I don't want to talk about it anymore. Must I tell you again?
None of us asked to be here, we all have to gamble, it's not as if we could refuse!
We had to gamble once we crashed! We're lucky, why shouldn't we put up a little more than we have to!
You can't help it! The curse buzzes out of your mouth with every word you say
And nobody alive can tell which is which, or what you mean...

Heh, okay fella
What time is it? Ah, that's better
It's better to roll up your life into one night and one man
Exploding day after day...
I didn't mean any of it! It was all wrong!
