Oh wasn't it Freddy who said
Courage wants to laugh on its head
Wasn't it the gods who died
In your bed
Oh so freely and with so much love
Love for your pitiful soul
Freddy wanted to dance
So he wouldn't get low
Then Freddy found Lou
Didn't know what to do
So he buried his heart on his sleeve
Oh wasn't it Freddy who said
Through the arrow of love
The heart's fed
And there's reason
To the madness in your head
When you're mad with love
And the heart that longs for laughter
Laughing at your beautiful soul
Freddy wanted to dance
So he wouldn't get low
Then Freddy found Lou
Didn't know what to do
So he buried his heart on his sleeve
I want goblins around me
Because I am strong
With a courage that frightens
The ghosts on my lawn
How many times
Do I have to sing this song
To prove that I am right
And that I will be strong
Freddy believed in a god
Who couldn't dance
He'd be a pagan if he had the chance
Writing those words
That were written with blood
He found the heart
And the ring of the free spirit
Cast away in a song of separation
A drama played out
Through a thousand civilizations
Deep in the roaming blue
A restless lover's waiting for you
Oh can't you hear her heart a beating
A melancholy tune of thoughts
Out of season
Lulling your heart awake
Lulling your heart awake
Awake awake awake awake
