Pretty Pimpin

Album: Surrounded by the Sound: Ten Covers by Eddie Berman Durasi: 3:16

I woke up this morning

Didn't recognize the man in the mirror

Then I laughed and I said

"Oh silly me, that's just me"

Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth

But they were my teeth, and I was weightless

Just quivering like some leaf come in the window of a restroom

I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

But it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday

No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Then Saturday came around, and I said

"Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?"

(...)

All he ever wanted

Was to be someone in life that was just like

All I want is to just have fun

Live my life like a son of a gun

I could be one thousand miles away

But still mean what I say

(...)

Then I woke up one morning

Didn't recognize the man in the mirror

Then I laughed and I said

"Oh silly me, that's just me"

Then I proceeded to not comb some stranger's hair

Never was my style

(...)

But I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

'Cause it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday

No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Then Saturday came around, and I said

"Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?"

But he was sporting all my clothes

I gotta say, pretty pimpin'

(...)

All he ever wanted was to be a man

But he was always

A little too cute to be admitted under "marbles lost"

He was always a thousand miles away

While still standing in front of your face

(...)

Then he woke up this morning

Didn't recognize the boy in the mirror

Then laughed and said

"Oh silly me, that's just me"

Then I proceeded to brush some stranger's teeth

But they were my teeth, and I was weightless

Just quivering like some leaf come in the window of a restroom

And I couldn't tell you what the hell it was supposed to mean

'Cause it was a Monday, no, a Tuesday

No, a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Then Saturday came around, and I said

"Who's this stupid clown blocking the bathroom sink?"

But he was sporting all my clothes

I gotta say, pretty pimpin'
