lyrics

Sometimes a moment's so real
you lose yourself within it
I'm in clean shoes and a new suit
and I'm trying to change my image
There are books I haven't gotten to
and songs I haven't finished
The dog won't quit barking, man
everyone's a critic

I'm trying to learn new instruments
I'm trying to be fearless
A piano fell from the second floor
and crushed my spirits
I stumbled up to the bar
asked for a ton and ginic
Sometimes a moment's so real
you lose yourself within it

There's a six block line outside the king's address
There's a motorcade to celebrate his death
Man, nothing lasts forever these days

Sometimes a moment's so real
you lose yourself within it
And when the moment leaves
it takes a piece of you with it
You loved me like a summer breeze
and I miss you like the dickens
I sent you off a letter
but the crow ate the pigeon

Since you dropped out of the station
'cause the rules were too rigid
And started jangling a tin
down where the winds are frigid
I danced you down the halls
of the recovery clinic
You left me at the station
holding both of our tickets

There's a six block line outside the king's address
There's a motorcade to celebrate his death
Man, nothing lasts forever these days
