about

(for the stagehands)

lyrics

all this time they never know
that you and i are running a show
moving swiftly and mostly unseen
during acts and in between

sometimes an actor has fallen asleep
and we wake them and get them on stage in a heap
we're the ladies of gaff tape; the lords of mops
we know all of the secrets but can't touch the props

i miss wearing all black with you
i miss learning a track with you
even though it was hard being crew
i still miss being backstage with you

all this time they never know
that you and i are fucking rocking this show
on four hours sleep and so much caffeine
making magic behind the scenes

every night at the same spot we will depart
to collect in the wings and watch our favorite part
we sleep in the green room and know all the lines
we've got ramen, and whiskey, and bulk-buy box wine

i miss wearing all black with you
i miss learning a track with you
even though it was hard being crew
i still miss being backstage with you

and sometimes your boss
triggers your ptsd
and you go out and break stuff
they call the police
and it all happens in the first act
of the final preview .

i miss wearing all black with you
i miss learning a track with you
even though it was hard being crew
i still miss being backstage with you

being backstage with you
being backstage with you
being backstage with you

even though it was hard being crew
i still miss being backstage with you
