Here comes my friend Michael,
|
grin written over his face
|
Walking with a kind of a swagger,
|
walking with a kind of a grace
|
He talks the talk, he tries to walk the walk
|
He makes you laugh, he makes you really mad,
|
He'll lick you with an acid tongue
|
Make you feel he's right,
|
when you know he's wrong
|
He says life's a bitch and then you die,
|
and then you die
|
|
But in the meantime, maybe in the meantime,
|
he keep on smiling
|
In the meantime, maybe in the meantime
|
like Michael says it's Mardi Gras
|
|
I don't think that life's like that,
|
choice of word is bad
|
Maybe it's a kind of a lesson,
|
maybe it's a sort of a map
|
We talk the talk, we try to walk the walk
|
It makes you laugh, and makes you feel
|
like you've been had
|
and maybe we will live many lives
|
|
Keep coming back 'til we realize it's in our hands
|
We choose to do wrong or do right
|
|
But in the meantime, maybe in the meantime,
|
he keep on smiling
|
In the meantime, maybe in the meantime
|
like Michael says it's Mardi Gras
|
|
The sun comes up and the sun comes down,
|
in the meantime
|
and the world keeps turning and
|
we're living and learning
|
In the meantime
|
and I think of you and wonder what you're doing,
|
in the meantime
|
Do you think of me and
|
what there could have been in the meantime
|
|
Here comes my friend Michael,
|
grin written over his face
|
Walking with a kind of a swagger,
|
walking with a sort of a grace
|
Lick you with an acid tongue
|
Make you feel he's right,
|
when you know he's wrong
|
He makes you laugh, he makes you really mad.
|
|
But in the meantime, maybe in the meantime,
|
he keep on smiling
|
In the meantime, maybe in the meantime
|
like Michael says it's mardi gras
