The Mystery Show

Welcome to the mystery show

Welcome to the mystery show

Forget the man who had a breakthrough

And wants to tell of things to shake you

But he's so nervous of indictment

He stays at home and leaves the lights out

And the more that you grow

The less you're sure of what you know

You want to understand

This mortal masterplan

You want to travel down

A road that can't be known

You want to theorise

With eloquence and alibis

Then lose the evidence

That goes against your own

Welcome to the mystery show

Welcome to the mystery show

Forget the paranoid believer

Who heard a noise on his receiver

Instead of growing with the town folk

He stays alone out on the back roads

You want to understand

This mortal masterplan

You want to travel down

A road that can't be known

You want to theorise

With eloquence and alibis

Then lose the evidence

That goes against your own

Forget the child who used to wonder

If God's above and man is under

The more you know you need to find Him

The more your conscience tries to hide Him

And the more that you grow

The less you're sure of what you know

You want to understand

This mortal masterplan

You want to travel down

A road that can't be known

You want to theorise

With eloquence and alibis

Then lose the evidence

That goes against your own

So welcome

You're so welcome
