Rite for the Unfulfilled Lyrics

Dan changed the Royal's projection room reels for forty years. The peril of his job, and the many stairs down to her ticket booth meant they never quite hit it off

Apart from the slap back in '68, his first true sign. He'd say "Beryl" passing her on the stairs. He contented himself. He'd decapitate her from brochures
But his own internal movie remained unaltered; over and over without judder or falter, his Beryl from reception, his Beryl at his altar
Sat aloft as the film reel flickers, he'd stick her head on girls without knickers. Stuck to a box. Beryl akimbo, Beryl astride, Beryl unspeakable, a Beryl tide

But his own internal movie remained unaltered; over and over without judder or falter, his Beryl from reception, his Beryl at his altar
