Lyrics
The Olde Headboard
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What becomes a legend most?
I'll let you think about it,
Space Ghost coast-to-coast
While I give thanks today
For all the things I stole
And all the things I gave away.
You make experiment, you try to
Teach a lesson and then take a stand.
A fake handshake don't make no man.
I don't know about a year ago or so
I must have made you up in my head.
What did I base you on?
Was it a Broadway show I saw?
A hot new book I read?
Half-baked you come at me
You know I told you not to call here no more.
The New Best Friend, The Olde Headboard.
Yo no comprendo, mi amour.
Oh no, yo no comprendo.
The New Best Friend, The Olde Headboard.
Where'd you get the dumb idea
For all the secretive platonic dating?
I have experience
In the love and the lives
Of Man and Machine.
Yo no comprendo, mi amour.
Oh no, yo no comprendo.
The New Best Friend, The Olde Headboard.
What becomes a legend most?
The love and the lives of Man and Machine.
What becomes a legend most?
The love and the lives of Man and Machine.
Olde Headboard.
