lyrics

a wise man once said there are three kinds of men after all
who will it be who climbs your wall?
ulysses, jesus or faust
they form a line in the great joust

one will love you for your patience
one for your bare existence
the last for your sky-high innocence
make up your mind, put them in trance
bring the light and walk the last dance

o penelope
who will you choose?
don’t you leave us in doubts

songs about women are so frightening
everyone needs to find a golden ring
we are like prospero with his broken wand
except from love we all abscond
and for that name which is no part of thee
now hold your breath and count to three

a rose by any other name
there is nothing left to reclaim
the rose makes a bleeding bruise
what future do you want to choose

o penelope
who will you choose?
these three men are waiting for you
don’t you leave us in doubts
