On a Wing and a Prayer
de Peter Mulvey
Houdini's still stuck in that Doctorow book
The one place he can never escape
And your voice on the phone
Is like one of those paintings where everything loses its shape
And the girl across the street, she's as light on her feet
As sunlight bouncing off chrome
And I'm sad sad sad sad and far away from home
Once I was standing on a Dublin street corner
I heard a fiddler pierce the veil of illusion
And once I got plastered at my best friend's bar mitzvah
Once I lived in perfect confusion
Oh and once I was eleven, once I was just atoms
Once I was a hilltop in Rome
Now I'm sad sad sad sad and far away from home
Oh Li dee dee dee dee dee dee de dee dee de dee dee
Now a kiss is just a flower that a bee could return from
And do his little dance at the hive
Perhaps it's worth mentioning, as I write this song down
I am the happiest fucker alive
For the seashore cries out for the painter to paint it
And the wind whips the water into foam
And I'm sad sad sad sad and far away from home
Yes I am sad sad sad sad and I'm far away from home
So Li dee dee dee dee dee dee de dee dee de dee dee
