Wishing for money is a man growing old and he
Breaks our knifes edge with his care for the ordinary
Winning hand in hand,
Michael Miles plays a game for me.
Liberace asks after me
and all my family.
On down the line,
A soldier hides
his worn uniform in an eiderdown.
Says "never mind the war
take me home again
for the last time".
Jim parades a toy that he won
on a rifle range.
Holds him up high
it's a plaster statue of Peter Glaze,
it says the strangest things.
And all we feel is lonely
just like stoneage dinosaurs.
Wishing for money,
is a man growing old and he,
breaks our knifes edge
with his care for the ordinary.
And Mr. T offers me and all humanity
a safe place to be.
And all we feel is lonely
just like stoneage dinosaurs.
