Is that all America?
|
Bad television, living in denial, I know
|
'Cause I don't wanna know
|
|
Wanna run, wanna fly
|
Let my illusions take me through the night
|
It's alright, wanna be the light
|
|
I was born in a cardboard box
|
New York City, 1963
|
Poetry readings and bohemians
|
Now inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud
|
I can hear you sing like an angel
|
|
Merilee, Merilee, she takes forever
|
But she's always laughing, laughing about anything
|
I could be so happy
|
As long as my friends are hangin' around me
|
|
Are we all fast food and no introspection?
|
All done with mirrors, but no real reflection
|
I wanna live in my own little world
|
Where inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud
|
I can hear you sing like an angel
|
|
Naivete'...this world is lost on me
|
Naivete'...I don't wanna know anyway
|
|
I always pictured my life this way
|
As two women order their chardonnay
|
Sitting alone in some dirty cafe
|
Where inspiration floats around me like a cloud, so loud
|
I can hear you sing like an angel
|
