He told me that I knew just what to laugh at And I wanted to but I just couldn't ask if he would take it back so I could know for certain So on the bench I watched his left hand crossing While doubling entendres with the voicings He said "oh darling, you're charming, please don't find it alarming If I pull this stop out to free up a hand for heavy petting" Now there there I'm a friendly man I joke about sex because it's funny when you're frightened So silently I sat and turned the pages Recalculating our respective ages Over my shoulder he muttered if I get any older You can hack my wrists off with your choice of objects no I'm kidding Don't be scared I'm a friendly man I joke about death because its funny when you're frightened This is as far as I could get he jabbed a needle in my neck Erasing all the evidence but there were matchsticks in my pants And if a rock should hit my head and I remember what he did You'll be there very first to know Maybe I'll find out why this damn thing wont stop bleeding SongtexteHe told me that I showed a great potential That given I turned heads and pages fame would be a piece of cake but Practice was essential So like a stupid child I believed it And golly who would ever had agreed if I had been schubert or mozart Devoted to the fine art of perfecting absolutely everything inconsequential Don't be sad I'll come back again I joke about trash cause it takes class to be enlightened So several decades have gone by I am still sitting by his side I turn the pages faithfully He turns his head and smiles at me And with a wink he said "I doubt We would be anywhere without Your gift for keeping truth and consequence from meeting" Aus Songtexte Mania
