Napoleon
   wore a black hat
   ate lots of chicken
   and conquered half europe
   napoleon
   was caught by the british
   imprisoned on elba
   he died on the phone
  
   chamberlain
   came crawling from munich
   with one piece of paper
   he waved at the camera
   peace in our time
   oh thank you herr hitler
   tell that to the polish
   tell that to the jews
  
   you take your babes
   up to the bathroom
   and then you lead
   them into the bedroom
   gnarly babes
   for pleasure and profit
   correctly applied
   could bring good results

   you're wearing a cynthia mask
   cynthia mask
   you're wearing a cynthia mask
  
   you're dressed as yourself
   you walk down the pavement
   you smile like a bowl
   you grin like a melon
   the people that pass
   they think that they know you
   they're too busy thinking
   to see who you are
  
   i'll reach your lungs
   like smoke in the orchard
   scattered in bushes
   the firemen laughing
   i'll rap your hands
   with personal signals
   don't come to me later
   come to me now

   you're wearing a cynthia mask

   cynthia mask
   i know how she feels
   but can't say a word because
   nothing is real in here
   not even her
  
   disguise yourself
   as you or another
   a brick or a spider
   in hunger and silence
   the yawning cross
   the hill full of pebbles
   inside you forever
   inside you is all
