| I like horns and I like strings
|
| And all of life’s frilly little things
|
| And I like polka dots when they find their perfect spot
|
| On some woodpecker’s wings
|
| And I like pictures, and gilded picture frames
|
| Throwing dice and drinking pink champagne
|
| And win or lose, oh lordy, I’m just glad I’m in the game
|
| I like my radio turned way up loud
|
| Well, everybody’s always saying
|
| «Come on, Walt, you gotta turn that down»
|
| But everything that I feel is right there in that sound
|
| So love me, or love me not
|
| Just know that I’m trying with everything that I’ve got
|
| To find the rainbows and
|
| See what might be down there in that old pot
|
| And all these ribbons and bows and curios
|
| That decorate my life
|
| They push me toward the light
|
| Like the little summer fly
|
| Upon the apple pie
|
| Right where the sweetness lies
|
| And it’s there, and then someday I’ll die
|
| And the angels will sing on high |
