Michael Praytor, Five Years Later by Ben Folds FiveIt was the opposite of ‘Fire and Rain'
|
You know the song
|
I never thought I'd see this guy again
|
But I was wrong
|
Oh, every five years
|
Since 1972 when at recess
|
He recruited me to try to kick
|
The church down to the ground
|
|
Michael Praytor
|
So random
|
Who knows why some satellites
|
Come by and by
|
While others disappear
|
Into the sky
|
|
Good morning, mirror
|
Break the change to me
|
I tried to stay too close to see
|
That there's a pattern in the tiles
|
And a fool who marks the miles
|
It was long hair
|
And this time it was no hair
|
Seeming thin, divorced, inspired
|
Engaged in chemo, born again and fired
|
|

So random

Come by and by

While others disappear
|
Into the sky
|
Disappear into the sky

|
Hey
|
|
At Hanes Mall parking lot at 5am
|
I saw him sleeping in his car
|
I've been up all night from New York
|
Bumming out on 95
|
Now I'm 30 and we all live with our parents
|
“And my wife,” he said, “she kicked me out”
|
I said, Same here
|
Guess I'll see you 'round
|
(I'll see you around)
|
Guess I'll see you 'round
|
(I'll see you around)

Come by and then they disappear
