peter mulvey - old simon stimson lyrics
old simon stimson was once in love with me
when i was solid as a smokescreen, bluer than a tree
but all of this has changed and now i’m faster than a clam–
i’m sober as a churchkey, just as happy as i am
once i could get by on the forty-dollar dole
in a carton made of duct tape on a pallet on the floor
bottle empties quick these days, and flim has come to flam
but it’s kind of hard to tell when you’re as happy as i am
brilliant as a box of hammers, fragile as the moon
stylish as a jaybird, sneaky as a spoon
heavy as the bluest note, true as any sham
safe as a house on fire, just as happy as i am
i was dreaming that you were what i was dreaming of
louder than a lighthouse that’s been whispering of love
funny as the pope on fire, ferocious as a lamb
and all i hope… is that you… are…
as stormy as a teacup, as fragile as the moon
stylish as a jaybird, sneaky like a spoon
heavy as the bluest note, true as any sham
safe as a house on fire, just as happy as i am
all i hope is that you are as happy as i am
