About Me
"He’s got the hands of a blind piano player He’s got a feel for the dark like a soothsayer He takes a little bow and tips his fedora Shouts like he’s gonna save Sodom and Gomorrah Workin’ for the circus X railroad bum Carnival barker for kingdom dot come Dusty old Gibson, opposable thumb Bangs out the rhythm on a 50 gallon drum Don’t wait for Tom Tom’s long gone he’s already moved on... Sittin’ in a corner with his pet muskrat Tossin’ his cards into an old man’s hat He grins at the girls and they always grin back He bets an old waltz he could get ’em in the sack He wears a tuxedo made of sackcloth and ashes Has a tattoo of a girl who can bat her eyelashes Down on the river he was fishin’ with a sword He knocked off John the Baptist for a word from the Lord" ["Over the Rhine"]
