about

I like jokey songs a lot, Nick Lowe does them, Andy Partridge, Costello in lighter moments. This is a shot at one from 2023.

lyrics

I had the keys to the castle and the service was first rate
Had a sky full o waxwings and the tree they venerated

I had a long spyglass and the tea with the peppermint

And if you kept a secret I think you might just have dropped a hint

Now I got 
13 inches of a foot in my mouth 

On a train headed west yet I’m going south

And nobody tells me what the joke is about
I can’t hit rewind

Fit for king

But the king threw a fit

Imperial palace now

Imperial pit

I was mess and you were so nice

Dark all day

But now I’m sunny at night

Sunny at night

I got two left feet and two right socks

Need a life ring, got a pocket of rocks

Stuck up in the time travelers’ paradox

Yet I can’t hold back time

Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night

Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night

With a long spyglass and the tea with the peppermint

I guess if you got a secret gonna bet you dropped a hint

Well I got three left feet and one right shoe

And I can’t hide what you already knew 

Your favorite’s purple and that’s why I’m blue

It’s what I can’t undo

Fit for king

But the king threw a fit

Imperial palace now
Imperial pit

I was mess and you were so nice

Met for a minute once

Now I’m sunny at night

Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night
Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night

Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night

Now I’m dark all day but I’m sunny in the night
