The Idiot Kings — текст песни (Soul Coughing)

(M. Doughty)
Everything is going up.
Everything is going as planned, yeah.
Everything moves along.
Everything is fine, fine, fine.
Oh I could be
Condemned to Hell for every sin but littering.
I could
Slip on the East River and crash into Queens all skittering.
I`ve seen the
Cops and the robbers, and I know they dance the same.
I`ve seen a
Half a zillion girls and haven`t spoken to a single one of them.
Batting in the light,
My reptile-lidded eyes.
And all this strung end to end,
Is wider than the mind.
And this cool I`ve been playing I have been
Playing too long now my
Capacities are dwindling `til they`re
Gone Gone Gone.
Baby can I change my mind?
I just want to change my mind.
