lyrics

5. Dominoes Do
Champagne magnum
Landed on my head
Three angry bouncers said
You're good as dead
The chandeliers began to sway
So they just broke my nose
Oh, down we go
Like dominoes do

The gas mains torched a Goya
I admired
Through my fingers I could see
A mule on fire
Caruso saved his wardrobe
From the flames
He sat down on his bags
And wept
Oh, down we go
Like dominoes do

If you're the skyline
Forever wishing me away
Am I just one more
Ticky-tack box
Slipping down the hills
Until the fog rolls in
And drowns us all

In the soup line stretched
'Round Union Square
Mary's headless martyrs
I have seen you there
My western queen
Nailed to a shaky throne
Your servant still remembers you
'Till down I go
Like dominoes do

"Steam powered fantasia with a touch of the wild, wild west and one of a kind mechanical instruments. If Melies had been a songwriter instead of film director, his music would probably have sounded something like this."
