YOU WERE STANDING ON THE CORNER
WITH YOUR FINGER IN THE AIR
YOU COMBED A CIGARETTE
AND THEN YOU LIT YOUR HAIR

I COULD TELL YOU WERE BEWILDERED
A BLANK LOOK IN YOUR EYES
YOU WERE ACTING SO CONTRARY
BUT WHO AM I TO CRITICIZE?

LIKE EVERY FISH IN THE SKY
AND EVERY BIRD IN THE SEA
I’M A BALL OF CONFUSION
IS IT YOU OR IS IT ME?

YOU EAT YOUR SOUP WITH A FORK
YOUR MEAT WITH A SPOON
WAKE UP EVERY EVENING
AND GO TO SLEEP AT NOON

YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU, HONEY
TAKE IT FROM ME
LIKE EVERY FISH IN THE SKY
AND EVERY BIRD IN THE SEA
