The Mayor -

It’s somewhere past midnight, my office the sole light

The weight of the city is perched on my back

Disputes and decisions, the mad circus deafens

And troubles in piles crash down on my lap

It’s 3 am and once again the lonely nightime never ends

Like pills i chew all day, my ulcer kept at bay

This city exists one step from the abyss

And some days I’m all that can keep it still sane

My son the school says is disturbed in his head

As if i can take one more straw on my back

My marriage is empty, my family resents me

No friends just agendas all perched to attack

His nanny cares for all his needs he loves her now far more than me

He asks for her when it’s just us all alone

You forfeit your pleasures to keep this city together

I tell myself he’ll understand when he’s grown

What few people know is there’s dwarves down below

Far under the city where membranes dissolve

They live down there still, work their damn hamlets mill

The wheel round which eras and epochs revolve

And It’s very rare the few times when they somehow decide they will send

Some strange baffling warning way up to our stead

The last time they did, that mccailister bitch

Unleashed her plague of dolls voodoo and dead

And now here they warn, the aeon is turned

And cycles repeat and some dire change comes

The Merlin’s appeared, in the park it is clear

His Arthur, his Edgar will soon be along

The task it falls falls on my back to keep this city safe, intact

The hard job that cost me my family and son

He’ll never know this, that I do it for him

The time for the difficult choices has come

Spoken: Operation eradication is a go.

Unleash the dogs
