7 Mary 3 – Player Piano lyrics
Album: Rock Crown
(For Tom O. and Kurt V.)
Play me like a player piano
roll me from the corners
of your dark and dusty shadows
Like a player piano,
I sit useless
most of the time
The bar gets darker
it swallows up the scarlet
The barkeepæ?¯ looking thin
We sit together
until only the piano
of the player remains
Tell me why you wonæ?° keep it
Tie me up in a shoe-string box
She donæ?° keep it if
she donæ?° need it
Get me out of the deep end
my legs are dangling over the roof
The room gets brighter
when I can see inside her
when I can turn the switch
But sheæ?¯ so together
I can do the damage and
she can manage the flames
