Mama, Won't You Keep Them Castles In The Air And Burning
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Invisible like all the reasons

Dark and cold like all the seasons

Things are not as you would have them

I'm no man and you're no woman


I guess I hope to see you sometime

Though our paths will never intertwine

Again I hope you notice

I'm no hare and you're no tortoise


And I'm touched by the same sad feeling of dread

Just to know that you can't wait to see me dead

An idea in your head and a compass in your hand

On a mission to a foreign land


So now I'm out for political favors

A salary that corresponds with labor

Big house and a morning paper

Good fences that make good neighbors


I'm at the end This here my rope

Another year to write and read the book I wrote

No dialing out for a good time

To bathroom wall toss it a dime


Dead king, dead swing Ali look out!

We have new rules to do without

You talk of Jesus 'til I'm well fed

The man is swimming, swimming, swimming in my head

Why settle down, why even try?

You tag 'em out beat bloodless I

So drop dead stock What fallen tree?

I leave New York for other cities

Which let me play with gas and fire

Took out an ad best friend for hire

And I know that Mama told me never to come

But I came soft and slowly bang me metal drum

Like Berryman Bed-wet poet fears

That better men drink taller beers

Like scientist I lost my glove

To bloody fists and harder drugs

So stick the knife and we get young

Like sacred cow without a tongue

who sang a song sing time does not cut deep

but cuts most absurdly (so la da dum x8)
