the angels - take a long line lyrics
this is it, folks
over the tone!
he was selling postcards from a paper stand
a whiskey bottle in his withered hand
he put a finger on a photo from an old magazine
and saw himself in the shadow of his dream.
they found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown
told him his feet stank and took him downtown
called him agitator, spy and thief
shut him up in solitary third degree!
chorus:
take a long line,
take a long line,
take a long line,
reel him in!
he tried to appeal to the king of might
said, ‘i’m just exercising my sacred right!’
the king said, ‘you ain’t got no right,
you’re a madman, a traitor,
get out of my sight!’
chorus:
take a long line,
take a long line,
take a long line,
reel him in!
found him in the town, inside a tin-pot crown
told him his feet stank and took him downtown.
called him agitator, spy and thief
shut him up in solitary third degree.
they put him aboard a well wound whirlwind
pulled out his teeth and he told him to grin
he gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine
and said ‘i never existed,
you’ve been wasting your time!’
chorus: (x3)
take a long line,
take a long line,
take a long line,
reel him in!
