The Second Show (Adam's Plea)

The world's a stage
I'm all the rage
You took a rib out of my cage
Thus we all began the stone-age
How could you leave
Me here with Eve
I was naïve beyond belief
Eden turned to Tel Aviv

Had a perfect world and she complained
Now our love is stained
And we're forced to leave the garden
I don't think it's fair to shut the gate
When you knew our fate
Can we reinstate?

Now, I see it was a dream
If ever I'm to glean
Must make my own melodic theme
Took my life into my hands
Now I'm in some strange land
With thousands of screaming fans

Don't worry about me
I'm fine
It's just gonna take some time
Not gonna go
Just to let you know
I'm sticking 'round for the second show

I've got free will
To pay the bill
I musta been mentally ill
To swallow the Serpent's pill
I was divine
High on cloud nine
Why didn't you just send a sign
It was the end of the line

Gave my life to make her satisfied
Turned around and lied
Now we're in the land of Canaan
Took a fruit of knowledge from the tree
Lights off the marquis
No encore aquí

Hold on tight
I'm letting go
Like Walden by Thoreau
An apple for my soul's no quid pro quo

Want my name up in the lights
To make the sky shine bright
Please take me to the highest heights

Don't worry about me
I'm fine
It's just gonna take some time
Not gonna go
Just to let you know
I'm sticking 'round for the Second Show

Don't worry about me
I'm cool
Never again will I play the fool
Not gonna go
Just to let you know
I'm sticking 'round for the Second Show

Don't worry about me
I'm fine
It's just gonna take some time
Not gonna go
Just to let you know
I'm sticking 'round for the Second Show
