lyrics

On With the Show
Words and music by John Natiw

Curtain goes up, on this old wooden stage
We're all here tonight, and here's where we'll stay
The people they smile, as those lights flicker on
Mostly they listen, but some sing along

And just for an hour
They have the power
To forget all their troubles
On With the Show

Music it echoes, out into the night
The moon through the windows, makin' everything shine
Some where pretty dresses, some dusty work boots
But in the end, they all leave two by two

And just for an hour
They have the power
To forget all their troubles
Hey, On With the Show

An old couple dances, back behind all the seats
The woman she follows, the old man, well, he leads
Me, I keep staring, at the clock on the wall
I know it won't be long, 'till that big curtain falls

But just for an hour
I have the power
To forget all my troubles
And get On With the Show

Just for an hour
We all have the power
So let's forget all our troubles
And get On With the Show
Let's forget all our troubles...

"The Potter's Field defies easy description -- Harmoniously haunting, deceptively simple, painting portraits of real life on the canvas of the listeners' hearts and minds with sepia undertones of edgy eeriness, poignant lyrics and bright splashes of toe-tapping energy." ... more
