Calliope

Where is my mum? Who is this coming near?
This just doesn't feel quite right
You're not my dad- where are you taking me?
As I disappear I can hear the sound of a calliope

"Where's the fire ma'am? What's your emergency?"
"A child's been lost tonight."
"We appreciate your call- I'll transfer you most urgently
And while you wait for the investigator here's a tape of a calliope."

Inspector Bean he seen that every lead they got was followed up
And he told my folks that they'd be finding me
As I sat in a pit wiping shit with my dirty sleeves
Remembering the sound of a calliope

And never again was this poor boy ever seen
He's been so long presumed to be dead and gone
But don't you worry folks- and don't believe the magazines
I still enjoy the sound of a calliope
