Song by Opening Lyric #9

Tell me something, girl/Are you happy in this modern world?

I had visions, I was in them, I was looking into the mirror/To see a little bit clearer

I got this feeling inside my bones/It goes electric, wavy when I turn it on

It might seem crazy what I'm 'bout to say/Sunshine, she's here, you can take a break

I had a dream so big and loud/I jumped so high, I touched the clouds

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens/Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

If you wake up and don't want to smile/If it takes just a little while

Breaking my back just to know your name/Seventeen tracks, and I've had it with this game

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain/I like watching the puddles gather rain

When you were here before/Couldn't look you in the eye

I met her in a club down in old Soho/Where you drink champagne and it tastes like Coca-Cola

Harry Truman, Doris Day/Red China, Johnnie Ray

I don't like walking around this old and empty house/So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear

So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you/I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot away from you

She said, "It's cold outside" and she hands me a raincoat/She's always worried about things like that

I've got your picture that you gave to me/And it's signed with love, just like it used to be

I am sitting in the morning/At the diner on the corner

Riding on the ____ __ ___ _______/Illinois Central, Monday morning rail

Fine, I understand, okay with me, if that's the plan/You can take the stereo, the TV and the video, the bed the sheets and pillows, before you go

The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow/Work day passes like molasses in wintertime
