On Monday I wishednThat it was Tuesday night, so I couldnWish for the weekend to come.nOn Tuesday I wished nThat the night would pass,nSo I could call you on the phone.nNow a man can spend a lot of timenWondering what was on Jack Ruby's mind,nBut time is all I have without you here.nnOn Wednesday when you hung up,nIt was as much as I could do,nTo stop from wishing Thursday,nWould pass so quickly too.nThey're out there making historynIn the Lenin shipyards today,nAnd here I amnIn the Hammersmith hotel,nWishing the days away.nnWasn't it a shock to findnThe king was human too?nStill I think he understandsnMuch more of me than you do.nIt seems a proper shame to steal,nHis clothes but not his crown,nHere I am in the Hammersmith hotel,nSinging the government down.nnOn Friday I wished nThat there was something morenTo be seen in the letters you send.nOn Saturday I wished that it was SundaynOh will this torment ever end?nSometimes I take a notionnTo put a torch to the tools of my trade,nHere I am in the Hammersmith hotel,nWishing the days away.nHere I am in the Hammersmith hotel,nWishing the days away.nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
