The Beckett Variations, Secret Bonus

Over the ocean and under the sea
Everyone's looking, looking for me
(But) haven't I told them and haven't they heard
Nothing good happens when Samuel is dead

You direct my entrance (And) I'll handle the rest
"Makeup", you told me
I did not understand
A big bang to begin with
A small flash to go down
It takes so long, my darling
I told you "I am done"

I feel the rain from skies above
I stand in mud below
Paris was so good to me, little did I know
Everyone deserves a break
Mine is coming soon
I've been traveling way too long; crying through the moon

Once you told me everything
Then you told me naught
Swallowed every word spat; thanked you very much
Silent when you wake me
Silent when we sleep
My lips are (Often) moving but I don't hear me speak

The more I write - the less I know
And music tells it all
All one needs is one good drink, followed close by more
The less we write - the more we know
My last work will be blank
Just a tall, thin paper buried in the sand

(It was) over the ocean
(It was) under the sea
Everyone was looking, looking for me
But haven't you told them (And) haven't they read
Nothing good happens when Samuel is dead
