Sharkey's Day

de Laurie Anderson

Sun's coming up
Like a big bald head
Poking up over the grocery store
It's Sharkey's day
It's Sharkey's day today
Sharkey wakes up and Sharkey says
There was this man
And there was this road
And if only I could remember these dreams
I know they're trying to tell me
something
Ooooeee
Strange dreams
(Strange dreams)
Oh yeah
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again
And it's love
Oh yeah
Strange dreams
And the little girls sing
Oooee
Sharkey
And the manager says
Mr. Sharkey?
He's not at his desk right now
Could I take a message?
And the little girls sing
Oooeee
Sharkey
He's Mister Heartbreak
They sing
Oooeee
Sharkey
Yeah
He's Mister Heartbreak
And Sharkey says
All of nature talks to me
If I could just figure out what it was trying to tell me
Listen!
Trees are swinging in the breeze
They're talking to me
Insects are rubbing their legs together
They're all talking
They're talking to me
And short animals
They're bucking up on their hind legs
Talking
Talking to me
Hey!
Look out!
Bugs are crawling up my legs!
You know?
I'd rather see this on TV
Tones it down
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
And Sharkey says
All night long I think of those little planes up there
Flying around
You can't even see them
They're specks!
And they're full of tiny people
Going places
And Sharkey says
You know?
I bet they could all land on the head of a pin
And the little girls sing
Ooooeee
Sharkey!
He's Mister Heartbreak.
They sing
Oooeee
That Sharkey!
He's a slow dance on the edge of the lake
He's a whole landscape gone to seed
He's gone wild!
He's screeching tires on an oil slick
At midnight on the road to Boston a long time ago
And Sharkey says
Lights! Camera! Action!
TIMBER!
At the beginning of the movie
They know they have to find each other
But they ride off in opposite directions
Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
You know?
They're growing mechanical trees
They grow to their full height
And then they chop themselves down
Sharkey says
All of life comes from some strange lagoon
It rises up, it bucks up to it's full height
From a boggy swamp on a foggy night
It creeps into your house
It's life! It's life!
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
Deep in the heart of darkest America
Home of the brave
Ha! Ha! Ha!
You've already paid for this
Listen to my heart beat
And the little girls sing
Oooeee Sharkey
He's a slow dance on the edge of the lake
They sing
Ooooeeee
Sharkey
He's Mister Heartbreak
Paging Mr. Sharkey
White courtesy telephone please
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
And the little girls sing
Ooooeee Sharkey
Yeah
On top of Old Smokey all covered with snow
That's where I wanna, that's where I'm gonna
That's where I'm gonna go.
