A Public Place

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.

If you had a room, he'd paint it white,

survives the day, prefers the night,

build sight.

Got a head for figures,

no time for bickers,

(or so he says,)

prefers the company of a woman.

Finds it more physical,

(that's an important word,)

always seen first then heard,

such a rare bird.

With praise he glows,

with change he grows,

finds that important,

hates waiting, it's not stimulating,

likes celebrating,

I can't understand why that is so funny,

that is sex.
