We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks
Salamander rolling zig zag Marching to a humdrum Between the truth and a cryptogram Like skeletons struck dumb In a closet gilt in camouflage All the secrets of the world Your conscience running rough shod The swine are throwing back your pearls
We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks
Don't let anybody find out What a lamb could never tell Who conceals it with a smile Like a crack in a liberty bell Put a dollar in a martyr Who rode a dead horse home Through the eye of a needle That burst the bubble of a holy ghost
We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks
We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks We all wear cloaks
