A Chair in the Sky |
| The rain slammed hard as bars |
| It caught me--by surprise |
| Mutts of the planet |
| And shook me down for alibis |
| Im waiting |
| For the keeper to release me Debating this sentence |
| Biding my time |
| In memories |
| Of old friends of mine … |
| In daydreams of birdland |
| I see my soul on fire |
| Burning up the bandstand |
| Next time |
| Ill be bigger! |
| Ill be better than ever! |
| Ill be happily attached |
| To my cold hard cash! |
| But now manhattan holds me To a chair in the sky |
| With the bird in my ears |
| And boats in my eyes |
| Going by There are things I wish Id done |
| Some friends Im gonna miss |
| Beautiful lovers |
| I never got the chance to kiss… |
| Daydreamin drugs the pain of living |
| Processions of missing |
| Lovers and friends |
| Fade in and they fade out again |
| In these daydreams of rebirth |
| I see myself in style |
| Raking in what Im worth |
| Next time |
| Ill be bigger! |
| Ill be better than ever! |
| Ill be resurrected royal! |
| Ill be rich as standard oil! |
| But now--manhattan holds me To a chair in the sky |
| With the bird in my ears |
| And boats in my eyes |
| Going by |
