oh, every girl in town, they know my name
at any door i’m never turned away
ay tongue has many uses
be it pleasure or excuses
invite me in, but know i cannot stay

i’ve got a reputation to uphold
i’m in my prime, in spite of getting old
each tune and each recital
offers proof that i’m still vital
they buy my lies wherever they are sold
i go by many names and many faces
i’m infamous and wanted many places
i’m searching for, you see
a missing part of me
but let’s not look at that! alone, i’m free

this entertainеr travels with a band
some friends who rеvel with me ‘cross the land
and though we’ve faced real danger
i still feel that i’m a stranger
like any story, nothing goes as planned

into my rambling life, there comes a tether
unfortunately two birds of a feather
a girl i wish i’d known
a daughter, smart and grown
she hates me, and again i am alone

now disillusioned with my fame
there’s one way i can clear my name:
embrace my kin and hence begin
a life of reparations

to prove i can be something more
to her and me, i shut the door
on those i called my friends
and leave a wake of devastation
my selfhood making much more sense
my lifeblood given recompense
i find myself remaining incomplete

but all good stories have a knack
for recapitulation
i’m beckoned back to once familiar streets

now as divine appointed storyteller crowned
i tell my tales both live and leather-bound
we all could use reminding
that our pasts are never binding
and any part that’s missing can be found
