Two cars leave in the morning
At night one car comes back
Daddy's closet is empty
His clothes laid in the yard in a stack
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
She stands alone at the alter
Taking his name as a matter of fact
Till she gets his text message
"It's just some courage that I lack"
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
2/3s into a 40
Halfway into the sack
Being high is so concrete
Being present is abstract
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
Putting people into tiny little boxes
Shackle them hand and feet
Close the lid and wait with hushed excitement
They're gone! Fait accompli!
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
70 and he still loves her
It was a promise, was a pact
But he's forgotten her first name
And she's down at the track
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
It's The Great - It's The Great
It's the Great - It's the Great
It's the Great Disappearing Act
