Long daddy green is an old old friend |
[00:17.01] |
He hangs around the rainbows end |
[00:19.17] |
Dealing out dreams from a potful of fortune and fame |
[00:24.37] |
Fanning the flames |
[00:27.01] |
Hear him calling your name |
[00:31.17] |
Long daddy green is a fly by night |
[00:34.81] |
You turn around, he's out of sight |
[00:37.29] |
Seems he's your fair weather friend and your foul weather foe |
[00:42.19] |
The wind starts to blow |
[00:44.96] |
Daddy green starts to go |
[00:49.03] |
The lies he tells are new to you |
[00:51.67] |
You're not naive |
[00:54.95] |
You know he won't be true to you |
[00:57.46] |
Still you believe, you believe |
[01:00.88] |
Long daddy green chops you down to size |
[01:04.51] |
With slow hellos and fast goodbyes |
[01:07.09] |
He comes around when you feel about 10 feet tall |
[01:11.96] |
To make you feel small |
[01:14.58] |
Just like nothing at all |
[01:31.45] |
Long daddy green is a heartless host |
[01:35.44] |
Ignores you when you need him most |
[01:37.16] |
Likes to pretend he's hard to get next to guy |
[01:42.30] |
He'll give you the eye |
[01:44.99] |
While waving goodbye |
[01:50.08] |
Long daddy green likes to hypnotize |
[01:53.56] |
And melt you with his magic eyes |
[01:55.28] |
Knows he can make you believe you are the only one |
[02:00.27] |
He'll show you the sun |
[02:03.02] |
Then grab it and run |
[02:07.04] |
You try to tuck his sleeve one day |
[02:09.61] |
Your hopes are high |
[02:12.83] |
You turn around and walk away |
[02:15.65] |
But still you try, still you try |
[02:18.99] |
Long daddy green likes to disappear |
[02:23.07] |
Pretend that he is nowhere near |
[02:25.14] |
Then he'll come tap at your window and scratch at your screen |
[02:30.03] |
He sure can be mean |
[02:32.74] |
Long daddy green |
[02:36.08] |
He sure can be mean |
