Carpenters - Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing Lyrics
Sing, singWhos that stompin all over my face?Wheres that sillhouette Im trying to trace?And whos putting sponge in the bells I once rungAnd taking my gypsy before shes begunJust singing and a dreaming of whats in my mindBefore I can take home whats rightfully mineJoinin and a listenin and talkin in rhymesStoppin the feeling to wait for the times(*) whos saying maybeThat dont mean a thingcause nowadays clancy cant even singSing, singWhos all hung-up on that happiness thing?Whos trying to tune all the bells they ring?And whos in the corner and down on the floorWith pencil and paper just counting the scoreWhos trying to act like hes just in-between?The night isnt black, if you know that its greenDont bother looking, youre too blind to seeWhos coming on like he wanted to be?Repeat (*)Whos coming home on the old 9 to 5?Whos got the feeling here to keep him alive?Though havin it, sharin it, aint quite the sameYou painted it golden nugget, you cant lay claimWhos seeing eyes through the crack in the floor?There it is baby, dont you worry no moreWho should be sleepin, but s writing this songWishin and a-hopin he werent so damned wrongRepeat (*) twice
