The Ballad of Bobby Fischer
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.
When New York city summer sweats
And the boys are rolling their cigarettes
The girls are singing into their phones
But Bobby Fischer is all alone
Parks are buzzing with the birds and the bees
Friends are hugging into them trees
The lovers are kissing and exchanging their rings
But Bobby Fischer is playing 18 games
A screaming and crying in the YMCA
Bobby Bobby why did you go away?
His mother is whispering, quite alone
Bobby Bobby where did you go?
Newspapers rolls are all over town
From the glistening sky tops to the filth on the ground
They bang and explode all over Times Square
Bobby is gone and no one knows where
Is he in London or is he in Spain
As he cut off his hair, he changed his last name
Is he under that rock or behind that tree
Oh Bobby Bobby, where can you be?
