It’s one o’clock and time for lunch,dum dee dummmm dee dum. When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench I can always hear them talk. There’s always been Ethel: “Jacob, wake up! You’ve got to tidy your room now.” And then Mister Lewis: “Isn’t it time that he was out on his own?” Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds – coo-coo to you! Keep them mowing blades sharp… I know what I like, and I like what I know; getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

And the lamb lies down on Broadway. Early morning Manhattan, Ocean winds blow on the land. The Movie-Palace is now undone, The all-night watchmen have had their fun. Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show, It’s the same old ending-time to go. Get out! It seems they cannot leave their dream.

All the pumping’s nearly over for my sweet heart, This is the one for me, Time to meet the chef, O boy! running man is out of death. Feel cold and old, it’s getting hard to catch my breath. ‘s back to ash, now, you’ve had your flash boy The rocks, in time, compress your blood to oil, your flesh to coal, enrich the soil, not everybody’s goal. Anyway, they say she comes on a plale horse, But I’m sure I hear a train. O boy! I don’t even feel no pain- I guess I must be driving myself insane. Damn it all! does earth plug a hole in heaven, Or heaven plug a hole in the earth-’how wonderful to [...]
