Pocketful of Keys |
He has one that locks the office |
And there’s one that starts the big fine car |
That finds its way home |
He has two that fit the front-door locks |
And one that fits the mailbox |
But inside there’s just a spider and |
He scuttles to the corner with his mysteries |
Cause he’s frightened by the jangle of his pocketful of keys |
He has one that fits the cashbox |
And one unlocks the liquor bar |
And it finds its way down |
He has one that fits the study door |
And one unlocks the desk drawer |
And he touches all his letters and |
He sorts them all according to his memories |
To the icy clank and tinkle of his pocketful of keys |
There’s a padlock on the garden gate |
There’s a padlock on the hunting lodge |
There’s a padlock on the his-and-her garage |
Amen |
He was a somber man |
Not inclined to telling her his mind |
And there’s one that locks the pain up |
And one that keeps the hot tears in |
But they find their way out |
He has one that locks the best gin up |
And one that keeps his chin up |
And in shaky situations he |
Has learned a way by which he even locks his knees |
And he holds himself together with his pocketful of keys |
Yes, he holds himself together with his keys |
