Shorty's Lament (Intermission) |
| Once, there was a Willie and he could see |
| That there was a Shorty and he could see |
| You could, you could tell that Shorty |
| Wouldn’t always be short, so he said |
| «Protect yourself, Shorty, protect yourself» |
| Once the fever finds your soul |
| Something else will take control |
| Something dark and from a bowl |
| Something says to me |
| But it can be indiscreet |
| And you tend to overheat |
| O’er the taste of soft and sweet |
| Something says to me |
| What can you do when something falls? |
| Walls close from somewhere, close from nowhere, like eyes |
| Can’t, can’t think clearly, I can’t think |
| But I can’t think clearly |
| Believe maybe you can, maybe you can help me |
| Bill, no, Willie, Willie, can you, doggone it, can you, Bill? |
| Can you, Will? |
| Maybe Jay? |
| No, no, he’s, bye, Jay, bye |
| I’ve got this light behind my eyes |
| And believe me, it tells me what, what to do |
| But I doubt it, it says that if you can’t win |
| Then there’s no way you can lose |
| If nature hates both a vacuum then the vacuum cleaner too |
| Then it laughs, I don’t know what this means |
| What can I do? |
| I don’t know |
| Love is, love is, love is, ahh |
| Love is, love is, love is, ahh |
| Love is, love is, love is, ahh |
| Love is expectation |
| Love is explanation |
| Love is exploitation, ahh |
| Somebody’s getting somebody happy |
| Love is complication |
| Love is consummation |
| Love is concentration, ahh |
| Oh, goddamn it, I can’t |
| Love is obligation |
| Love is insulation |
| Love is stimulation, ahh |
| It’s always, 'have a good weekend' |
| Love is ruination |
| Love is accusation |
| Love is navigation, ahhh |
| Is anybody, is anybody driving? |
| Someone’s gotta be, somebody driving? |
| I can’t drive, I’m not, is anybody driving? |
| Somebody must be driving |
| Is anybody, is anybody driving? |
| Is anybody driving at all? |
