We -
are the subjects of Emperor Norton the first,
He -
saw into the future and some, called it a curse,
We -
Wait for his words from the past, put them to verse,
See -
Which prophecies come to pass, and then disperse,
We-
Ask everybody be cool, calm and collected,
When the ghost of the emperor appears, and is reflected, In the eyes of the audience here, and then injected,
In the stories and the songs that we share, it’s all connects, So -
Light up your candles and bring the lights low,
There’s a ghost in the music who’s name you might know, Who envisioned that the bridge and the tunnel they might go,
Through the bay one hundred years before to night so,
Put all your gas lamps on low,
We’ll tell you all about this,
Put all your gas lamps on low,
Some of you might doubt this,
Put all your cell phones on hold,
At times we scream and shout this,
Sit back and act like you know,
See we’re all about this
We -
are the subjects of Emperor Norton the first,
He -
saw into the future and some, called it a curse,
We -
Wait for his words from the past, put them to verse, See -
Which prophecies come to pass, and then disperse, Free!
