CURTAIN CALL..

I leave Phoenix in TWO months. 

Curtain Call Lyrics, Tori Amos...

ebony beauty 
pass this shade 
the looking glass relects 
then a voice calls me back, 
"this is just circumstance it is not 
personal", oh no it never is. 
then you ram your hand in your bag 
for a little friendly substance 

By the time you're 25 
they will say, "you've gone and blown it". 
By the time you're 35, I must confide, 
you will have blown them all 
Right on cue just act surprised 
when they invite you to take 
your curtain call 
you climbed China's wall 
your 
curtain call 

I have done what I've done 
and it has the ultimate consequence 
then a voice calls me back, 
"this is not business, no, 
its more like spiritual" 
is that what it is 
Then you ram your hand in your bag 
for a little protection 

By the time you're 25 
they will say, "you've gona and blown it." 
By the time you're 35, I must confide, 
you will have blown them all 
Right on cue just act surprised 
when they invite you to take 
your curtain call 
you climbed China's wall 
your curtain call 

ebony beauty 
pass this shade 
the looking glass reflects
