mister, make me a song (infinite joy) - william finn lyrics

Loading...

[william finn]

all i’m asking for is a tune
something itchy to tap my toes to
something that, in late afternoon
makes high*strung boys collapse
mister, perhaps you need some refreshments
what about some oolong?

ooh, make me a song
make me a song, boy
drag out the ukulele
this israeli is gonna fill the air!
write me a thing that’s here for all time
like tennis or mahjong
and mister, make me a song

all i’m asking for is a mood
something hot but not literary
maybe something ruckus and crude
that activates my toes
n0body knows the wounds i keep hidden
i’ve hid them for too long

so make me a song
make me a song, boy
drag out the deepest feeling
i’m revealing
everything raw inside
make the harmonic
simple and pure
let’s keep the rhythms strong
and mister, make me a song

don’t make it lifeless
i don’t want lifeless
i want a song that i can swing!
1*2*3*4*5
something with glory
that tells a story*
a song with hope, and joy, and spring

make the moment melt in my throat
all i’m asking for is perfection
make each measure and every note
so wicked i could die
i’ll tell you why i love to make music:
i feel like i’m blonde

so make me a song
make me a song, boy
try not to fancy up it
i’m your puppet
sit down, and have a ball
i am enthralled to getting it right
so i won’t get it wrong
and mister, make me a song!
mister

(spoken)
come on, come on, come on!

(sung)
make me a song
make me a song
come on make me a song
