In my head of course
I’ve always been
Master of the
One-legged,
Turn-around,
Tumble-down
Snake and shake shuffle
Between platform five
And the fantasy gun
I aim at the midnight sun.
In my head, of course
I dance (oh so well)
Alongside those that rose
And those that pose
With chameleon scarves
And too many faces
While the rains from
Distant seas tumble
Into my dream-hero bed.
But now, right now,
All I’m wond’rin’ is
What the orange genie
In the arcade bottle’s
Gonna do
When there’s nobody
Left at this party
But me an’ you.
