Last Year

Isn't that the guy

From last year?

Hey, he's a wild man

He's a real pioneer

Hasn't moved an inch

Since last year

Hey, the man's an artist

He's committed to his craft

I wouldn't last a day

Not out here

Hey, not to be heartless

Hey, I think he does it for a laugh

Is someone standing there?

If you can hear

Please come in near

I'm in need of a friend

It seems I was left here

Try looking for my last volunteer

Picked the wrong one again

She fell asleep ahead of me

Now I'm an absentee

Underneath this tree

In the public domain

Bring yourself in closer still

Make yourself at home

And don't mind the smell

It's been more than a year

It's a kind of house arrest

To be dispossessed

Without my last request

'Cause I'm more than infirm

If you could set me alight

I'd be much obliged

And if you're so inclined

You could keep yourself warm

Isn't that the fire

From last year?

Hey, it's a hot one

It's a real nine alarm

Wasn't there a park

Here last year?

Hey, I left my lighter around here

If you see that guy

From last year

Say that he can keep it

I've got another one at home

(Hey)
