White Sky |
An ancient business, a modern piece of glasswork |
Down on the corner that you walk each day in passing |
The elderly sales clerk won’t eye us with suspicion |
The whole, immortal corporation’s given its permission |
A little stairway, a little piece of carpet |
A pair of mirrors that are facing one another |
Out in both directions, a thousand little Julias |
That come together in the middle of Manhattan |
You waited since lunch |
It all comes at once |
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Around the corner, the house that modern art built |
A house for modern art to keep it out the closets |
The people who might own it, the sins of pride and envy |
And on the second floor, the Richard Serra Skate Park |
You waited since lunch |
It all comes at once |
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Sit on the park wall, ask all the right questions |
«Why are the horses racing taxis in the winter?» |
Look up at the buildings, imagine who might live there |
Imagining your wolfords in a ball upon the sink there |
You waited since lunch |
It all comes at once |
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ah-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh |
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh |
