There was one king
This was his one sin
You never make a move
'til you've got something to prove

Upon a cross
Strapped to a lathe
Young ingénue
Escapes unscathed
You read the part
But you didn't get it
Left Lancelot out of the picture credit

If there's just one line
that springs to mind today
Your bottom-lit face
Hovering in outer space

Upon a cross, strapped to a lathe
Young ingénue, escapes unscathed
You read your part from your beer gut heart
Then you fell to earth
Where you became a star

Each time, I see, your face, remains,
Your beer gut heart escapes unscathed
Left Lancelot out of a part
You married the monster, but not the art

You fell to earth
But you wanted it back, now
You slipped at the tracks now
The one with the cross
And it's all gone bad hasn't it
Now that you're dead
