Yes,  my  love, oh we  are magicians,  you and I
 And soon  we'll see,  the cloud  shapes in our eyes
 are blind,  but fly,  forever  just the same,
 forever  just the same
Oh  you - you've been sleeping  in the rough
 a travelling  man took you by the hand, and still  I wonder
Why  girl - you've got a pocket  full of snuff
 a meek  and mild, ragtime child who  sometimes wonders
Why,  the crowds all stare
 Mrs Porters crying, keep  that kid away, from my  bear
I've  got 10 bob on that one,  and ill not be having no
mad  assed kid, do me wrong
 and suddenly  the curtain falls
Oh  it - it may well hap'  to be
 That there's  magic wed, in ragged threads
 That you  sleep under
To  find – there's an comfort  in melody
 To a mild and meek,  ragtime chic
 And still  I wonder
Why,  the crowds all stare
 Mrs Porters crying, keep  that kid away, from  my bear
I've  got 10 bob on that one,  and ill not be having no
mad  assed kid do me  wrong
 and suddenly,  the curtain falls
Mary's  just a poor  girl
 Turned alabaster call  girl, with bruised and pale  pins
Mary's  still a poor  girl, so through those gutters crawl  girl
 Your secrets sleeping  in
Why  the crowds all stare
 Mrs Porters crying, keep  that kid away from my  bear
I've  got 10 bob on that  one, and I'll not be having no
mad  assed kid do me  wrong
 and suddenly,  the curtain  falls
Yes,  my  love, oh  we are magicians,  you and  I
 And soon  we'll see,  the cloud  shapes in our eyes
 are blind,  but fly,  forever  just the same,
 forever  just the same
