lyrics

Coco wakes up in a humid haze,
In the wee small hours of the afternoon,
Daytime TV pulls him into a daze,
And he surrender’s his attention to the auction room,
Propped up on coffee and microwave meals,
Nicotine stains on the Memory Reel,
He follows his programs with religious zeal,
But all he’s waiting for,

A Fanfare for the Retired Clown!

Coco is frozen in permanent malaise,
He hasn’t seen another person for days,
He just gets by with his means and his ways,
And bothers no one else.
