about

A requiem to Michael Jackson RIP,
composed 3 months before his death in june 2009.

Unfortunately legal wranglings by Jackson's estate kept this gem in the vaults until march 2011.

lyrics

Prisoners of Neverland

When I have a perfect face (preferably dominant race)
and sex and perfect skin, I will be the King of Neverland.
I will find a dream-ticket in your box of chocolates:
when you bite the final twiglet, you’ll awake the King of Neverland…

Is this Beverley Hills or Antarctica ?
Are we lost at the fair?
Or are we somewhere in Africa?

My best friend’s a chimpanzee, is that so extraordinary?
Leave your egos in the hall, come and join the ball in Neverland...

Is it day here or night?
Neverland is a dangerous place;
Fairy-tales are never black or white;
Dynasty, just don’t turn on the light:
It’s a state of mind that winners choose.

Great Red Carpet in the Sky,
When the final curtains rise…
So this is it: beaming lights, screaming fans
streaming through the golden gates of Neverland…

Angels white as aspirin:
Elvis, Janis, Jimmy Dean, Karen, Kurt and Marilyn:
Hark ! the heavenly Band Aid playing
“We are Prisoners of Neverland…”
