solitary home - the hollywood tapes - major parkinson lyrics
do you remember
do you remember
do you remember the first time you took a ride
on a vertigo pony made of mahogany?
waving to the ducks by the surrogate clown
(bum bum bum bubblegum, bum bum bum uptown)
smashing your leather b*lls
into the rusty cans shooting rabbits and monkeys
feeding the donkeys
(waiting for the days)
waiting for the days!
to be blemished in frown
do you remember when you stood in the yard?
i said the world is right in front of your feet
and someday you’re gonna meet mr. marlon brando
live in a tango, build up a house of dreams
do you remembеr when you could do anything you wanted to?
they said you wеre the greatest one of the finest girls girls girls at the college uptown, uptown!
do you remember when you could say anything you wanted to say
they said you were the smartest one of the brightest girls girls girls in the college uptown
hey hey do you remember when you stood in the aisle
between the rivers that you saw in your dreams
the fainted flashes from kindergarten
swimming in bourbon chasing a big balloon
you looked so happy shooting the blind with blanks on medicine square
in the obituary rolling stone
a metropolitician met joe dimaggio
playing arpeggio from the great beyond
in the solitary home a woman’s talking through a phone
with a man who’s selling dreams for people who never close their eyes
unless they try to sleep
and in the solitary home (in the solitary home) by the tv all alone
her children left her years ago
and her husband sails a world of paper souls and silhouettes
(oooohhh ooooooohhhhh when)
time hits the gravity nothing seems to measure up
the days, the weeks, the months and the years filling her up
you’re stuck in a commercial
hideous like a dying tiny little puppy
skinny to the bone
bite the bullet twixt the cup and the lip in a monstrous town
where the jingles are fading
every time you try to change the channel
searching for some meaning somewhere inbetween
you tune in, drop out, trying to shout
but no one can hear their own voice when they dream
aaaaarrgh!!!!! (dream dream dream)
hey hey do you remember when your eyes had a drain
there was the guy behind your lashes
showing all the pretty flashes of humphrey bogart feeding you yoghurt
on from the great beyond
on to the great beyond!
