ben folds & nick hornby - doc pomus lyrics

man in a wheelchair in the lobby of the forrest
with frighters, hustlers, hard-up millionaires
mobsters, cops, wh0r-s, pimps and marxists
all human life is there
man in a wheelchair listens to the chatter
writes down all the insane cr-p he hears
he can’t move around but it doesn’t really matter
in the forrest, all you need is eyes and ears
and out they pour, the hits and misses
turn me loose, lonely avenue
and down in nashville, elvis sings suspicion
pomus, shuman, 1962
and he could never be one of those happy cripples
the kind that smile and tell you life’s okay
he was mad as h-ll, frightened and bitter
he found a way to make his feelings pay
back at the forrest, in the steakhouse off the lobby
a diner gets three bullets in the head
doc looks down, eating his linguine
think up a lyric for the dead
and out they pour, the hits and misses
turn me loose, lonely avenue
and down in nashville, elvis sings suspicion
pomus shuman, 1962, 1962
fred neil, jack benny, crazy phil spector
pumpkin juice and eydie gormé
damon runyon jr. and the duke’s orchestra
all superhuman life was there
and he could never be one of those happy cripples
the kind that smile and tell you life’s okay
he was mad as h-ll, frightened and bitter
he found a way to make his isolation pay
and out they pour, the hits and misses
turn me loose, lonely avenue
and down in nashville, elvis sings suspicion
pomus, shuman, 1962
and out they pour, the hits and misses
turn me loose, lonely avenue
and down in nashville, elvis sings suspicion
pomus, shuman, 1962
