the weather machine – astoria fur lyrics
[verse 1]
the president said, “john aster
go make for me an empire”
so cut the masts and let it float
i won’t let jesus repossess my boat
’cause i’ve been dreamin’ of the west
columbia, pacific crest
my el dorado’s dressed in fur
my enterprise is hunting her
[verse 2]
i built pianos since i was 14
traded them for yankee green
went to where the natives and the frenchmen mixed
learned their talk and walked their tricks
i married me a godly gal
bought property to anoint the town
we made money off that ground
they call it greenwich village now
[chorus]
well, i’m gonna rise up from the sea
build my big monopoly
can’t tin the din, new york city
astoria, from hawaii
i’m gonna be my own contest
there’s no regulation out west
can’t tin the din, new york city
astoria, from hawaii
[instrumental bridge]
[chorus]
i’m gonna rise up from the sea
build my big monopoly
can’t tin the din, new york city
astoria, from hawaii
i’m gonna be my own contest
there’s no regulation out west
can’t tin the din, new york city
astoria, from hawaii
