setting: Manhattan studio at sunset, spick and span, muggy and aseptic.
(clearing throat).
- boasting, out loud, no hurry, with rhythm -
…a 1, a 2, a 1, 2, 3, 4.
- Waiting for a good friend who said he’s coming into town,
you said to give you time and space, lucky me I’ve got someone to get down with
and when I mean I’m counting down the days to new rides along the way,
I know that smile laid on your face might have been for a second mine
and when I say I am not worried I try to make sure that I mean it
for every moment on my own I can think of those sweet lips to obscenity
and I could have paced through pouring rain again towards feeling somehow like this,
manning up the little boy inside who’s not ready for another first kiss
and if anybody tries to get me down I bet a fat paycheck it won’t do a thing
I just wanna take my eyes sight seeing and my raspy voice is more than ready to sing
and I’ve gotta say I’m feeling really glad the good and bad were at least true
and I hope these seven days in silence will bring me a little bit closer to you,
‘cos I am waiting for a friend who said he’s coming into town, you said to give you time and space, at least I’ve got someone to get down with…
-
…everybody!
yee-haw!
