Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go So make the best of this test, and don’t ask why It’s not a question, but a lesson learned in time It’s something unpredictable, but in the end that’s right I hope you had the time of your life ---

I pulled out my Stage Coach Times And I read the latest news I tapped my feet in dumb surprise And of course I saw they knew The Pinkertons pulled out my bags And asked me for my name I stuttered out my answer And hung my head in shame Now they’ve found me At last they’ve found me It’s hard to run From a starving family Now they’ve found me Well I won’t run I’m tired of hearing There goes a well-known gun ---

I read the news today, oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade And though the news was rather sad Well I just had to laugh I saw the photograph He blew his mind out in a car He didn’t notice that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They’d seen his face before Nobody was really sure If he was from the House of Lords ---

I can’t believe the news today Oh, I can’t close my eyes and make it go away How long… How long must we sing this song?

Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes made of ticky tacky, Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes all the same. There’s a green one and a pink one And a blue one and a yellow one, And they’re all made out of ticky tacky And they all look just the same. And the people in the houses All went to the university, Where they were put in boxes And they came out all the same, And there’s doctors and lawyers, And business executives, And they’re all made out of ticky tacky And they all look just the same. And they all play on the golf course And drink their martinis dry, And they all have pretty children And the children go to school, And the children go to summer camp And then to the university, Where they are put in boxes And they come out all the same. ---

Little Jeannie, you got so much time, Little Jeannie Though you’ve grown beyond your years You still retain the fears of youth Oh Little Jeannie, you got so much time, Little Jeannie But you’re burning it up so fast, searching for some lasting truth And I want you to be my acrobat I want you to be my lover Oh there were others who would treat you cruel But Oh Jeannie, I will always be your fool ---

Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows, the tune she hums But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can hear me When I say softly, slowly Hold me closer Tiny Dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today ---
