| [00:16.510] |
Dead in the water |
| [00:19.800] |
It's not a paid vacation |
| [00:24.150] |
The sons and daughters of city officials |
| [00:27.960] |
Attend demonstrations |
| [00:31.570] |
It's hardly a sink or swim |
| [00:34.530] |
When all is well if the ticket sells |
| [00:41.160] |
|
| [00:47.240] |
Out with a wimper |
| [00:50.570] |
It's not a blaze of glory |
| [00:53.840] |
You look down from your temple |
| [00:57.500] |
As people endeavor to make it a story |
| [01:02.250] |
And chisel a marble word |
| [01:05.310] |
But all is lost if it's never heard |
| [01:10.310] |
|
| [01:17.150] |
But I've got someone to make reports |
| [01:20.310] |
That tell me how my money's spent |
| [01:24.400] |
To book my stays and draw my blinds |
| [01:28.230] |
So I can't tell what's really there |
| [01:32.360] |
And all I need's a great big congratulations |
| [01:39.520] |
|
| [01:52.460] |
I'll keep your dreams |
| [01:55.729] |
You pay attention for me |
| [01:59.910] |
As strange as it seems |
| [02:02.600] |
I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me |
| [02:07.60] |
The ground may be moving fast |
| [02:10.178] |
But I tied my boots to a broken mast |
| [02:16.890] |
|
| [02:22.600] |
The difference is clear |
| [02:26.140] |
You throw it in your cauldron |
| [02:30.549] |
Rust and veneer dusk and dawn |
| [02:34.209] |
Steinways and Baldwins |
| [02:38.60] |
You start with a simple stock of all the waste |
| [02:43.19] |
And salt to taste |
| [02:52.690] |
But damn my luck and damn these friends |
| [02:56.209] |
That keep on combing back their smiles |
| [02:59.260] |
I save my grace with half-assed guilt |
| [03:04.500] |
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn |
| [03:08.0] |
Spread my arms and soak up congratulations |
