Walking in Vancouver -
deb... or whatever.
(Walking In Memphis - Marc Cohn)
Put on my black trench coat
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the LA blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
A. D. Skinner - won't you look down over me?
Yeah I got a pair of handcuffs
And I'm out on the balcony
Chorus:
When I was walking in Vancouver
I was running flat out in 3 inch heels
Now I'm blading in L.A.
I think the palm trees are too surreal
Saw the ghost of Pendrell on Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of the Hoover
And I watched him walk right through
Now security did not see him
They just hovered in their little room
And there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for CSM
Down in the Pentagon Room.
(Chorus)
We had Flukeman in the sewers
Duane Barry in mid-air
Now Baywatch Barbies, and tiny Speedos
You know we haven't got a prayer
But boy we had a prayer in Vancouver
Mark Snow plays piano
Every night up in Hollywood
And they brought me down to see him
And they asked me if I would--
Do a number on him
And I 'sang' with all my might
And he said--
"Tell me are you a Phile child?"
And I said "Sir, I'm GABAL tonight!"
(Chorus)
Put on my black trench coat
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the LA blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
Touched down in the land of the LA blues
In the middle of...
... 400 ...
...quakes.
With many apologies to Marc Cohen,
deb... or whatever.
