Terzetto

Tapping on the table to the ticking of a different time
Entertaining each and every estimation in his mind
Sifting, sorting, separating supplements in every bite
Living as a leper looking loneliest at dinner time
Add the aces up to nine
Tally up the total till the trio can be recognized
Edit till the essences and elements are intertwined
Seldom ever seeking out the signature of woman-kind
Lavish in his living but a loathing in his bitter spine
Ailed by aching pantomimes
While silver spoons in smoky rooms
Enjoy the fumes and lazy tunes
The rumors circulate and loom
Above the men in tailored suits
Each man a rung to climb
Archers aim high!
Tinker with the turbine tamper only till the tune is right
Energize intentions and empower the eternal light
Seek a new solution to salute the union so divine
Lend a lengthy lecture on the layout of the new design
Archers aim the arrows high!
While silver spoons in smoky rooms
Enjoy the fumes and lazy tunes
The rumors circulate and loom
Above the men in tailored suits
Each man a rung to climb
Archers aim high!
