Emperor Norton in the Last Year of His Life (1880) |
Every set of keys is an original |
Every silver lining is a curse |
Anyone who’s ever turned their back on me |
Always ends up facing something worse |
Something worse |
Some kind of nightmare or some kind of curse |
Miss Sally Rogers did a little dance for me |
Warmed me up and down my crooked spine |
Miss Sally Rogers, yes, she’ll dance for anyone |
She’ll be your as easily as mine |
She’ll be mine, Miss Sally Rogers never will be mine |
So I said Run around, run around, run around Sal |
Run around, run around, run around Sal |
Sally run around |
Last night it was snowing down on Market Street |
This morning there’s three bodies in the cold |
All the love you’re saving for a rainy day |
Won’t be enough to save your wretched soul |
Save your soul |
Won’t be enough to save your wretched soul |
Save your soul |
Twenty years ago I saw the president |
He rode a silver horse into the crowd |
A hundred years ago they might have made him king |
Without him brother where would we be now |
