James Jefferys - Understudy

You and me could bruise the grass
Then possibly open the page
Two fossils of a bygone age
Should show the children how to last

The man with the hailer, loud
Fidgets gently in his chair
So the midgets went and stared
Because everything is allowed

My understudy moves in the scene
Puts pedal to the Pharaoh
So maybe I have come and been
And he wants it more than I do?

Try again; this time with gusto
With a strong full-on forlorn
Through the night to morning's dawn
Where understudy's rusty

Butter drips
On his manuscript
From where he's stuffing
His English muffin
Down his throat
In his tweed coat

Two barrels, bolder
Over his shoulder
He studies colder
He studies colder...

My understudy moves in the scene
Puts pedal to the Pharaoh
So maybe I have come and been
And he wants it more than I do?

My understudy moves in the scene
Puts pedal to the Pharaoh
So maybe I have come and been
And he wants it more than I do?

He studies colder...
