lyrics
I wake up and you're still sinking,
What new thoughts have you been thinking?
How will you light up the sky today?
Carousels on Fire Island,
Give free hot dogs to the blind man,
Who's that kicking down the street? That's her.
Pennsylvania to Chicago,
War and peace and trade embargos,
Don't you ever want to go to there?
But you're fifteen hours behind.
And though you're fifteen hours behind,
I'm here watchin' worlds collide;
To see your life up on the screen,
Another brick in the machine;
Though you're ten thousand k's away,
I swear I'll visit you someday.
Dorothy Parker, yeah, one and the same.
Thet-iota-kappa-lambda,
Mongrel Greek and Gilda Radner,
Fix me with your dead shark eyes today.
But you're fifteen hours behind.
And though you're fifteen hours behind,
I'm here watchin' worlds collide;
To see your life up on the screen,
Another brick in the machine;
Though you're ten thousand k's away,
I swear I'll visit you someday.
Dorothy Parker, yeah, one and the same.
