Clockwork Dandy, when you laugh, I feel like children tremble with fear
and their mothers are hiding them in brush lockers, for only they don't meet you
Crying is pouring out a wild wave that drowns the innocents and throw the bad on their knees
You know how to make the world love you and hate you at the same time
Sometimes you smile wryly, looking at the ugliness that surrounds you
and then want to change everything, but you can't do anything
Only your laughter, from which the shivers go through the backs, can change something
Laugh, Clockwork Dandy, as loud as you can
In your small house near the Fleet Street, where modes of eternity work
