lyrics . . .
It looked fun on the itinerary
From station to station a new site to see
So much wine on the stone steps of heroes
From Heathrow to hedge row a train wreck to follow
He said that’s entertainment you see
Now it looks like a place I do not want to be
He plays all the notes and he knows all the chords
but without a technique they’re just letters and words
part of the landscape now spinning around
leads me to question my feet on the ground
the more that’s held onto the more one can lose
the less I can stand it so sit down and choose
You’d think there’d be a lesson to learn
Just an old shelf with a book that won’t burn
Can’t write a letter don’t talk on the phone
No carriage return and now no dialtone
Talk second, first open your eyes
Make a connection without a disguise
Drop your pretenses discard your defenses
Don’t mistake kindness for suspect advances
In the order of the world, it’s first
Might not be worthy of a second verse
The finest in stock but there’s nothing to bring
The moral dilemma of having nice things
