If you jumble all the myths together
And Lear appears at Parsifal's table
And the Queen of Sheba flounces in
With St. Francis on her arm
And Achilles and Nietzsche
Get lost in a game of chess
And Dante starts to get preachy
And Mary straightens her dress
You'll know the carnival of heaven
Has come to your town again
To dissolve the world in chaos
And absolve it of its sins
And once again you face
The beasts who bar your way
Take off the masks of gods
And learn again to play
