Brian Whitman
(This transcription lies
heavily in my interpretation of the song - the
lyrics in many parts are unclear, but my words
sound right... see what you
come up with, let me know!)
(I'd also like to say that
this was the overall hardest song to do - not only
because it's long, but also because there's
so many puns and hard words to
understand completely - great tune with great poetry,
though!)
The barstool's built for dreamers
Will fit fine, and find
All those in
the world whose dreams have died
But tonight they're only taking thirsty people
Who've
been pulling on their drinks
From a glass lies appaling quiet
And in the drink there swim
the swimmers
And those who swims have dried
You take another look
Take another
poll
Take another pull
Before you take a ride
Heir to an open
barstool
Right there just wanna marry the fool
Mary sees the bartender's needs
And
she sets in a bottle that she was born to be
I say that's cool
Just right - right
for a fool
Thinking whiskey, she bought me a drink
I won't cross a word of what the
lady thinks
Pray I don't cross what the lady thinks
No, she's been thinking out too
loud, though
This time I can't hear the pinball machine
And there's a birdman playing
tired sideway bongo
Pulling all those words down, down, down
Look at how the numbers
grow
In the glass there rolls the iron ball
And the quarter states the toll, that's
all
You take another look
Take another poll
Take another pull
Before you take a
chance
Look at your hands
They're just ripe for a new kind of dance
Just forget
what you're body's just done
And ride on the waves that the tounge's pressed on
Like
as small as babies do
You know the little move on - babies do
If there's some food that
the moon feeds on
Pray it won't hold it back - it won't hold it back
Baby doesn't
know what I just said
Baby doesn't know the words that I just used
Babies haven't learned
any words yet
Babies haven't even used giant words yet
People only think
People
only talk
People only think in words they already know
Babies haven't learned any
words yet
They know what people feel
They don't really care what the people
think
They only care what the people feel
Music only knows what the people
feel
Babies only care what the people feel
