It didn't feel like Sunday
|
Didn't feel like June
|
When he met his silent partner in that lonely corner room
|
That over looked the marquee
|
Of the Plaza all-adult
|
And he was not lookin' for romance
|
Just someone he could trust
|
|
(Chorus)
|
And it wasn't no way to carry on
|
It wasn't no way to live
|
But he could put up with it for a little while
|
He was workin' on something big
|
|
Speedball rang the night clerk
|
Said, "Send me up a drink"
|
The night clerk said "It's Sunday man,...wait a minute
|
Let me think
|
There's a little place outside of town that might
|
Still have some wine"
|
Speedball said, "Forget it, can I have an outside line?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
It was Monday when the daymaids
|
Found the still made bed
|
All except the pillows that lay stacked
|
Up at the head
|
And one said, "I know I've seen his face
|
I wonder how he is?
|
|
The other said, "Probably just another clown
|
Workin' on something big"
|
