tuscan villa - sammy j lyrics

[verse 1]
right now someone’s making love
in a villa perched above
a rustic tuscan vineyard
but you’re here watching me
where did your life go wrong?
which decision led you on
a path that ended here
and not in tuscany?

[chorus]
cause that couple making love right now
made choices that you didn’t make
and i’m sure you’ve got hundreds of excuses
why you couldn’t take
the time off work, the kids need care
the flight’s expensive too
but someone’s making love right now in tuscany
and it’s not you

[verse 2]
right now someone’s on a stage
in new york, getting paid
a hundred thousand dollars
but i’m performing here
and though i respect you all
it would be a stretch to call
a late-night gig in melbourne
the peak of my career

[chorus]
and that new york performer must know
someone in the industry
nepotism, i -ssume
is why they’re there instead of me
but though i try to justify
it’s plain for all to see
that someone’s adding shows right now on broadway
and it’s not me

[bridge]
so it seems that we’re all here
against our will, and i fear
that our collective failures
will haunt us to our graves
and when that day arrives
and our lives flash before our eyes
i doubt that this performance
will feature anywhere

[outro]
but even though our dreams have all
been trampled by reality
i’m sure that there’s a villa lying vacant
now in tuscany
so let’s pretend we’re in it
for the show that lies ahead
and if you cheer like i’m on broadway
then i’ll play like we’re in bed

[spoken, sammy j]
thank you so much, my friends! look at- look at us manipulate you like that! well, welcome everybody here to the unveiling of this suite of works, collectively known as “symphony in j minor.” tonight’s symphony will consist of three movements: patriotism, parenting, and politics, although we’ll also take a detour along the way through p-b-rty, paranoia, and public infrastructure. but i’d like to begin, uh, with a piece that goes out to all my fellow nerds in the crowd, where are my fellow nerds?

[audience member]
yeah!

[spoken, sammy j]
no no, that was way too confident! nah, the real nerds are sitting there quietly with low self-esteem. you know who you are, this one’s for you.
