Are You Lookin' At Me?
(专辑: Are You Lookin' At Me? - 2007)
Well I
loved the
Lone Ranger and I
loved that Dennis Law Him and George Best, sure knew how a
kick a
ball I
wanted to be a
cowboy, and learn a
crack a
whip Stand up in that lonely street, two six guns on my hip Along the
mighty Beatles came, and everyone went ahhh They could play and sing and everything, and of course that John could draw Well that was it for me, I
never once looked back Tricks to learn, waves to catch, had a
plan of attack Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me, pal? Then we headed south, where the
surf came crashing in From black and white to colour, from innocence to sin It was summer in December, blowing heatwaves in my mind People talking funny, some cruel and some were kind From the
crackle of the
cane, to the
frown of a
big black snake From the
breakers at Bondi, down to Wallaga Lake From the
sound of a
million fly screen doors, closing on the
past Like that chimney the
fires couldn't burn, I
was built to last Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me, pal? When I
flew across the
ocean, I
was number one People gave me everything, and I
didn't need a
gun Walking down that avenue, I
never felt so alive People calling out my name, and I'd only just arrived It was a
tight rope walking bagpiper, in the
middle of Central Park Steam was rising from the
ground, and I
wore my cape out after dark I
had myself a
moment, my day out in the
sun It's an unfinished story, but it's more than just begun And I
know more than one thing, but not more than two or three An I'll tell you if you'll listen, and I'll tell you for free It's no life being a
cowboy, and eating all them beans The
coffee's cold, the
herd is gone, and all you've got's your dreams You can always put your spurs back on, but save them for Halloween You're better off heading north, or somewhere you've never been Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? Are you looking at me? I
said, are you looking at me, pal?
