You Can Call Me Al |
| A man walks down the street |
| He says why am I soft in the middle now |
| Why am I soft in the middle |
| The rest of my life is so hard |
| I need a photo-opportunity |
| I want a shot at redemption |
| Don’t want to end up a cartoon |
| In a cartoon graveyard |
| Bonedigger Bonedigger |
| Dogs in the moonlight |
| Far away my well-lit door |
| Mr. Beerbelly Beerbelly |
| Get these mutts away from me You know I don’t find this stuff amusing anymore |
| If you’ll be my bodyguard |
| I can be your long lost pal |
| I can call you Betty |
| And Betty when you call me You call me Al |
| A man walks down the street |
| He says why am I short of attention |
| Got a short little span of attention |
| And wo my nights are so long |
| Where’s my wife and family |
| What if I die here |
| Who’ll be my role-model |
| Now that my role-model is Gone Gone |
| He ducked back down the alley |
| With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl |
| All along along |
| There were incidents and accidents |
| There were hints and allegations |
| If you’ll be my bodyguard |
| I can be your long lost pal |
| I can call you Betty |
| And Betty when you call me You call me Al Call me Al |
| A man walks down the street |
| It’s a street in a strange world |
| Maybe it’s the Third World |
| Maybe it’s his first time around |
| He doesn’t speak the language |
| He holds no currency |
| He is a foreign man |
| He is surrounded by the sound |
| The sound |
| Cattle in the marketplace |
| Scatterlings and orphanages |
| He looks around, around |
| He sees angels in the architecture |
| Spinning in infinity |
| He says Amen! |
| and Hallelujah! |
| If you’ll be my bodyguard |
| I can be your long lost pal |
| I can call you Betty |
| And Betty when you call me You call me Al Call me Al |
