(Watch Me) Disappear

The curtain's still lowered, it's just before dawn I'm standing here wondering how I've waited so long By the time the clock strikes six I'll be somewhere far, far away No matter all the tears you shed when you asked me to stay I went the doctor, said I don't feel so good My temperature's high and I'm misunderstood He said son, you know, I'm not that kind of doc but I know just what to do And if you'd thought for a second, I think you'd know it too I went to the preacher, said father I've sinned I've spent my whole life living out on the fringe He said son, you know, that's not a sin but I know how you feel I think you should go out and find something real So go ahead and wipe that sad look from your eyes I'm a magic man, you know, you shouldn't be so surprised I've had a lot of practice, so really, there's nothing to fear Won't all of you, please sit back, relax, and watch me disappear Yesterday I spoke to the delivery man I told him I'm running as far as I can He said son, I don't really know you, but I hope you find what you're looking for And if you've gotta go, you ought to do it with style you know So go ahead and wipe that sad look from your eyes I'm a magic man, you know, you shouldn't be so surprised I've had a lot of practice, so really, there's nothing to fear So all of you, please sit back, relax, and watch me disappear Yeah all of you, please sit back, relax, and watch me disappear
