San Francisco's calling us, the Giants and Mets will play
|
|
|
|
|
Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay?
|
|
|
|
|
We hung about the stadium, we've got no place to stay
|
|
|
|
|
We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell
|
|
|
|
|
About the saddest ending of a book you ever had to read
|
|
|
|
|
The statue's crying too and well he may
|

I love you I've a drowning grip on your adoring face
|
|
|
|
|
I love you my responsibility has found a place
|
|
|
|
|
Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words
|
|
|
|
|
Come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd
|
|
|
|
|
You'll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job?
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe, but not what she deserves
|

Elope with me Miss Private and we'll drink ourselves awake
|
|
|
|
|
We'll taste the coffee houses and award certificates
|
|
|
|
|
A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960 style
|
|
|
|
|
We'll comment on the decor and we'll help the passer by
|
|
|
|
|
And at dusk when work is over we'll continue the debate
|
|
|
|
|
In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare
|
|

|
The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day
|
|
|
|
|
The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays
|
|
|
|
|
He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor
|
|
|
|
|
He knows the drink affects his speed he's praying for a doorway
|
|
|
|
|
Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench
|
|
|
|
|
Life outside the diamond is a wrench
|

I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend
|
|
|
|
|
I know it wouldn't come to love, my heroine pretend
|
|
|
|
|
A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
|
|
|
|
|
You'd settle for an epitaph like ``Walk Away, Renee''
|
|
|
|
|
The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower
|
|
|
|
|
Meet you at the statue in an hour
|
|
|
|
|
Meet you at the statue in an hour
