Paroles de Amorous Humphrey Plugg

hello, mr. bigshot. say, you're looking smart. i've had a tiring day. i took the kids along to the park. you've become a stranger. every night with the boyscouting new suit. that old smile's come back and i kiss the children goodnight and i slip away on the newly waxed floor.

i've become a giant. i fill every street. i dwarf the rooftops. i hunch back the moon. stars dance at my feet. leave it all behind me. screaming kids on my knee and the telly's swallowing me and the neighbors shouting next door and the subway trembling the rollerskate floor. i seek the buildings blazing with moonlight, enchanting way. their very eyes seem to suck you in with their laughter. they seem to say "you're all right now. you're all right now. so stop a while behind a smile, enchanting way..."

oh, to die of kisses. ecstasys and charms. pavements of poets will write that i died in nine angel's arms and they always smiling still seductive as sin in their eyes. the man i have been, no more heart, like stories to wear. nothing left to give. why the hell should i care?
echo's my smile and mary's my shadow. enchanting way and with her cellophane thighs she leans on the counter and begs me to stay. "you're all right now. you're all right now. you're all right now. so stop a while, enchanting way."
