Lyrics
Albany
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.
The Egg, exciting and old
The Egg, you'll do what you're told
The Egg, the Egg, no corners for you
The Egg, when was it new?
The Egg, there's nothing to do
The Egg, the Egg, no corners for you
Poured concrete flowing into organic shapes
Carpet, wood trim, and some velvet drapes
Combine to make one perfect place
From the outside I am thinking
I'm a number, not a man
From the outside I am thinking
What were they thinking?
The Egg, exciting and old
The Egg, you'll do what you're told
The Egg, the Egg, no corners for you
No corners for you
No corners for you
