Magic Box
- Pete McCabe -

The Man Who Ate The Plant (1973)

 

There at the bar sat the magic man
Who, not very long ago, had bowed
with the most impressive grace
at the end of his little show
His beautiful moustache had lost its curl
And drooped into his beer
His eyes that in the footlights glowed
were bleary and unclear

And I had a drink
with the wonderful magic man

"That really was a remarkable trick.
Please tell me how it's done."
He didn't seem to hear at first
He downed his beer and another one
Then, in a voice that still retained
the glamour of his show
He said to me with half a smile
"It's not a trick, you know."

And I had a drink
with the wonderful magic man

"Those volunteers from the audience
You'll never see them again.
There's no trap door or phony floor
from beginning to the end.
No trickery at all." He said
"I wouldn't have you on.
They step inside that magic box
And, damn it, they're gone."

And I had a drink with the wonderful,
marvelous, magical magic man

Well, we sat and drank a little while
I thought about the show
And all I'd heard and then I said
"Well, just where do they go?"
Then he said
"I just don't know.
But they're glad enough to go.
I've travelled far and near
and everywhere.
They beg me to make them disappear."
