Mike's Mur

Instrumental

I'm okay, you're okay
Why remember when it wasn't this way
See my home, see my car
And the beach always used to seem so far

And no one touches me
Unless it's the way i want it to be
I know i read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And i don't look back

I'm alright, sleep at night
Used to lie awake listening to cats fight
See my hair, see my shoes
And i used to be scared of the dark too

And no one touches me
Unless it's the way i want it to be
I know i read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And i don't look back

Cosmopolitan

And no one touches me
Unless it's the way i want it to be
I know i read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And i don't look back

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

I got to get away, study my geography
I'm just a shadow of the boy i used to be
I used to see the light, now it's all a mystery
I used to feel the beat, now i feel a million miles from...

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

I used dirty words never too excessively
But saying "rock&roll" never seemed so bad to me
I dare said it in hip and happy company
I was in and out in a second on my way to...

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

Memphis, so where the hell is memphis?

I had a one-way ticket and a little radio
I turned it on, heard the sound from twenty years ago
Somebody smiled and said, that's the only way to go
He died at twenty-one, now nobody's innocent in...

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

Somebody turned around, said, i got to disagree
He wrote that sort of turn people out to anarchy
He made them think about marlon brando on tv
I guess they still went down against anything they got in...

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

I met a wise old man, he had longer hair than me
He said, memphis is nothing like it used to be
A hundred dead guitarists lying in the cemetry
I felt a sudden chill, now i'm not so sure about...

Memphis - where the hell is memphis?
Memphis - where the hell is memphis?

I'm on a lonesome train on a lonesome track
I think i'll jump right off, head for home, double back
And though i'm better now i know that no-one knows the facts
I'm gonna start again, forget i ever heard about...

I want my mother, someone to cook for me
Each day another, take out no msg
I'm gonna change the world, but not today
Think i'll just go get drunk down on avenue a

I want a french maid, someone to wash my jeans
Each quarter i've made is lost in washing machines
I'm gonna change the world, i could be president
If i could just work out where all my mondays went
