Musical Rudolf Affaire Mayerling
The Fourth Dimension Ball
Rudolf, Mary
All the world is mad and gay
White is black, night is day
Nothing is as it appears
Gardens grow from chandeliers
Winners lose and losers win
Devils pray and archangels sin
Peasants strut and princes bow
Then and there is here and now
Choose your partner, start the dance
One more kiss, one last chance
Sound the trumpets, bang the drums
Something magic this way comes
Upside down and inside out
Is what this magical night is about
True is false and false is true
Who am I, and who are you?
Keep revolving, spin around once again
Keep on turning
Go on waltzing to the beat
Of your foolish heart yearning
Like a circle in a wheel that is always returning
Go on dancing 'til the last waltz is through
Keep on swirling, spin around once again
Though it's fleeting
Go on waltzing to the sound
Of your foolish heart beating
Like a dreamer in a dream that is always repeating
Go on dancing 'til the last waltz is through
What is real and what is not
Fire's cold, and ice is hot
Life is hanging by a thread
Even God, we're told, is dead
Sound the trumpets, bang the drums
Something magic this way comes
True is false and false is true
You are me and I am you
