| It’s been so long since you crossed my mind
|
| I find ways to pass the time
|
| Chasing monkeys through the rings of hell
|
| suites me exceptionally well
|
| And all my constituents agree:
|
| I’ve been changed like a pebble in the sea
|
| By the politics of time
|
| But riddle me this: What happiness is mine?
|
| That old comedian we lived above
|
| asked me to send his love
|
| He’s chasing Andy Warhol…
|
| down fifth avenue in his socks
|
| And all my constituents agree:
|
| He’s been framed like the kid from Huscogy
|
| By the politics of war
|
| But riddle me this: What happiness is yours?
|
| I hope this letter finds you safe and well
|
| like an oyster in its shell
|
| I will see you when take my rest
|
| On the lunatic express
|
| And all my constituents agree:
|
| we’re as a letter in the sea
|
| In this universe of bars
|
| But riddle me this: What happiness is ours? |
