Lyrics Prague, 1842 - Icarus the Owl

Prague, 1842

On the corner of
Broadway and Riviera
It’s the seventh time (time, time)
They’ve driven by;
(by)
I didn’t think they had any reason why
Ooh, You’ve set yourself up a crime
I’m the one who got you all out in time
You’re no good at evil intentions
You’re no good (x2)
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you’ll follow me until I submit to you
There was a hotel (hotel)
On the edge of town (town)
On the gulf of Alabama
It’s the seventh time (time, time)
They’ve driven by;
(by)
I didn’t think they had any reason why
I’ll be gone by morning
I’ll slip out unseen
You’re a cigarette butt
Doused in gasoline
I’m all set for murder;
The doctor said I’m clean
What’s happening to Valerie
Is happening to me
Ooh, You’ve set yourself up a crime
I’m the one who got you all out in time
You’re no good at evil intentions
You’re no good (x2)
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you’ll follow me until I submit to you
I don’t mind what you do to me
But will you keep your hands off my legacy
It’s too late they’ve taken her away
Keep your hands off my Valerie (Valerie)
Ooh, You’ve set yourself up a crime
I’m the one who got you all out in time
You’re no good at evil intentions
You’re no good (x2)
I put a man on the moon
And yet was the least of things that I could do
I swore a life of solitude
But you’ll follow me until I submit to you
