There was a resolution pending on the United Nations floor
|
In reference to the question, "What's a peace keeping force for?"
|
Who believed it would be solved in a day?
|
No one who walked out of that building on the eighth of May
|
In their tired-suited, worn-eyed way.
|
|
I got a message from my sister, she just had a kid
|
I had to get to Copenhagen to see how she did
|
My haircut startled a Canadian, he called me a "skid" (???)
|
Thought the charge for roaming international's well hid
|
Someone is listening on my phone when I show up on the grid
|
Me--I'm just a loner in a world full of kids--egos, and ids.
|
|
A year before and we were getting in, getting bottled in Cork
|
On television, Congress crying about abusing the pork
|
I told the bartender we were all from New York
|
Sometimes the path of least resistance will gain you the most
|
Well, more than trying to map the distances up and down the East Coast
|
When you're in Munich making music, raise your glass and say, "Probst!"
|
(Make it easy on your host)
|
|
Over mountains and far away
|
Your tribuneral mockeries of justice still dog my steps
|
Until I see that next smiling face
|
A little good will goes a mighty long way
|
A little good will goes a mighty long way
|
|
I finally made it up to Sweden to see Little Dove
|
Some folk remembered our last meeting and bore me no grudge
|
And from the bartender, complimentary mugs!
|
Oh, if only I could stay a while--what am I afraid of?
|
All this psychic damage of all the years I'm made of...
|
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love (I'm falling in love)
|
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love (I'm falling in love)
|
I think I'm falling in love, I'm falling in love.
