letra de phantom of my own opera - daniel johnston
i’m the phantom of my own opera
oh don’t i know it
and i think of you, sweetheart
i’m lurking in the shadows
of my memory
we were going to have a circus in the bar
but the creature lurks among us
the ghost of our past
the gho-o-ost of our love
and if i had my own way
i always say that phrase
i thought it was a phase
but it wasn’t
and so here i am
in my baggy-clown costume
perform any funny trick and throw a kiss
to the audience
and i’m wearing a mask
but you don’t have to ask
who i’m thinking about
and there’s a monkey in the background
hung by a rope from the ceiling
and i’m the villain, acting fierce
and stretching whiskers toothsomely
the phantom wears a black coat
long trousers and a derby
stands erect
and cracks the whip loudly
i’m the phantom of my own opera
i perform all the parts
and i think of you, sweetheart
i’m even the audience
and i can’t help thinking
we were going to have a circus in the bar
can’t pull the curtain
i can’t help remembering
turn a somersault after singing a verse
and the song is never ending
and i never quit rehearsing
a performance of a sad and twisted art
and if i had my own way
i don’t know what i’d do
i probably wish it was you
