Rage on, rage on, my brother

Time to lay down my arms

You know that it's wrong for me to go on

There's a madman singing down in the alley

My love waits at the window

My love waits by the door, the curtains are drawn

Who'll sound the alarm

It's the madman singing down in the alley

I'll abandon the train

From the crowd watch the parade

Of the madmen singing down in the alley

Darling, take off your makeup

Gently let down your hair

We'll stand by the grave and sip our champagne

Toast the madman singing down in the alley

Toast the madman singing down in the alley
