lyrics

Oh Jim just say we’re the same
I changed my shirt
I changed my name
Still it’s kind of you to address me still
I must admit I’ve grown attached
It’s no big deal most of the time
But tonight I just can’t hide it

Walking on stilts in the rain
We got human eyes now resting sweet

I had a tutor once
I dream of her but once a year
On the anniversary her mother died
Now she’s got her city and I got mine
Oh my you’re looking thin
I’m shut in the room I been sinning in, all right
Judas fingers, coast to coast
I know you
Where the boys swing, I swing
Where the boys swing, I swing

There was a fire at The Hartt School
A piano major got trapped in the practice room
He didn’t call or cause a fuss
He just closed the door and went on back
To that “Golliwog’s Cakewalk”

Walking on stilts in the rain
We got human eyes now resting sweet

I had a lover once
He went wild, wild, wild and crazy kids
Once you leave you can’t get shit back
Like the night I left my watch in the cul-de-sac
It’s getting cold
Dropping names with your crooked truth
I know you
Where the boys swing, I swing
Where the boys swing, I swing
