Gutter Ballet Lyrics

Send "Gutter Ballet" Ringtone to your Cell

[Taken from Japan Live '94]

[Music & Words: Jon Oliva, Criss Oliva, Paul O'Neill]

Another sleepless night
A concrete paradise
Sirens screaming in the heat

Neon cuts the eye
As the jester sighs
At the world beneath his feet

It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
In the darkness of the night
To a distant fading light

Balanced on their knives
Little parts of lives
Such a strange reality

Kill the unicorn
Just to have its horn
Soon he's just a fantasy

It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
On a dark and lonely night
To a distant fading light

The jester takes his bows
Slips into the crowd
As the actors fade away

Another death to mourn
Another child is born
Another chapter in the play

It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra plays
On a dark and lonely night
To a distant fading light

It's a gutter ballet
a gutter ballet, ooh
a gutter ballet, aah
a gutter ballet, yeah

Another sleepless night  
A concrete paradise  
Sirens screaming in the heat  
  
Neon cuts the eye  
As the jester sighs  
At the world beneath his feet  
  
It's a gutter ballet  
Just a menagerie  
Still the orchestra plays  
In the darkness of the night  
To a distant fading light  
  
Balanced on their knives  
Little parts of lives  
Such a strange reality  
  
Kill the unicorn  
Just to have its horn  
Soon he's just a fantasy  
  
It's a gutter ballet  
Just a menagerie  
Still the orchestra plays  
On a dark and lonely night  
To a distant fading light  
  
The jester takes his bows  
Slips into the crowd  
As the actors fade away  
  
Another death to mourn  
Another child is born  
Another chapter in the play  
  
It's a gutter ballet  
Just a menagerie  
Still the orchestra plays  
On a dark and lonely night  
To a distant fading light  
  
It's a gutter ballet  
a gutter ballet, ooh  
a gutter ballet, aah  
a gutter ballet, yeah
