Intro - Piano & Horn -------------------- x 2 Somebody screamed and all of Jim Jeffries' dreams Explode into a black fist, he falls to the floor He stares up at the sky and he may wish he knew why But you can't go back there no more Future sounds so crazy We've all heard that song before Tomorrow's the name we change from yesterday to blame When the train just don't stop here anymore I got starry-eyed on the coaster ride Andy says, "man I need a break from the world outside" These days my life just careens through a pinball machine I could do so much better but I can't get off the tilt And there's a photograph on the TV Black and white and Andy says something to you Jack Johnson straddling Reno, Nevada like She says, "I forget myself sometimes too" Out past the doorways where we are sleeping Well, the white queens creep And the Tom cats peep Chorus ------ Now I'm not breaking, The train's just shaking, I never made it here before, There's a white mouse spinning the girls around, 'Til they can't take it anymore I used to dream in the dark of Palisades park Up over the cliffs and down among the sparks It's a long life Full of long nights But it was not what I was waiting for Everybody's seen the horses diving down the shore It's a miracle they don't make them anymore. So make up ladies, wake up baby You walked into the bar like some Saturday star Stud-straight on spiked heels and needles and nerves, You're a down town pride, fully amplified Clyde, Gin-tight and aging but well-preserved, Remember Andy outside your bedroom window, Saying "come on, let's drive across to the Palisades" Keep going 'til we hit Reno, Nevada I don't see Andy all that much these days, Still there are pages in back, Of the action stacks Where, the white queens creep And the Tom cats peep and... Now the trains not braking, The track's just shaking, I never made it here before, And there's a sky rocket turning the world around, 'Til I can't take it anymore You can carry that spark from Palisades park Down over the cliffs and out into the dark It's a long life Full of long nights But it was not what I was looking for Everybody dreams of horses flying round the shore It's a bad dream we're not having anymore Man, Have you seen Andy? Hey man hey man! Have you seen him around? Hey man! Have you seen my my my my my my my Andy? Have you seen him? x 4 Hey! Have you seen Andy around? Dressed up in our pirate best All leathers and feather and pearls Andy said, "look at me man, I'm cooking these hands could Finger up this whole world" He said, "come outside Climb out your bedroom window Shimmy down the fire escape and say good-bye Come outside" Andy says, "I'm dressed up just like Edie Changing all the time my leopard spots to polka dots and say good-bye Come outside Well maybe we could move to California Just meet me at the subway and say good-bye Come outside The cops all think we're crazy If you stay you'll just get married To a girl who'll never know you and then say good-bye Hey man, have you seen Andy? I lost her in the sun I was high as a kite on lovely and white Man, you could lose anyone Hey hey man, have you seen Andy? I don't know where she's gone But real love outlives teenage lust We could get wet and it keeps us warm Love is like angel dust Lovely sometimes changes us ...sometimes not Have you bee aching to trust or just...? Have you been waking yourself with lust...? Have you been making us up or just taking us home? It's a long wait At a long light Cars frozen in flight All the traffic stops to stare At a crosswalk in Reno, Nevada Wearing nothing but air And a pair of grey paper wings Andy thinks, "man, I have got nothing to wear" We got nothing new and We got nothing to wear We got nothing to wear We got nothing to wear
