( For Tom O. and Kurt V.) Play me like a player pianoroll me from the cornersof your dark and dusty shadows Like a player piano,I sit uselessmost of the time The bar gets darkerit swallows up the scarlet The barkeep?s looking thin We sit togetheruntil only the pianoof the player remains Tell me why you won?t keep it Tie me up in a shoe-string box She don?t keep it ifshe don?t need it Get me out of the deep endmy legs are dangling over the roof The room gets brighterwhen I can see inside herwhen I can turn the switch But she?s so together I can do the damage andshe can manage the flames
