Not green in the gills
or blue in the face
just a little red in the eyes
staring into space
Watching black feet
black beaks, black wings
in unison
singing again, a song
under the cieling's constellations
"Have a little faith."
you're [more than] likely to say
but I prefer my coffee straight
and hope to keep my facts the same.
A half windsor knot
and a milk white face
you know a little red in your eyes
just might help this place
Watching the buzzing mess
busy 'yes'- business men
singing again, a hymn
praying for more than constellations
"Try a little faith."
you're [more than] likely to say
but I prefer my whiskey straight
and hope to keep my facts the same...
You keep moving your mouth
like you've got something to say to me
and if the words don't come out now
we've got the night to coax them out
I took the first verse from a previous song.... just so you know.
