pop (70s, 80s, 90s) You Can Call Me Al - Paul Simon Lyrics

A man walks down the street he says
Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
The rest of my life is so hard

I need a photo opportunity
i want a shot at redemption
Don't want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard bone digger, bone digger
Dogs in the moonlight
Far away my well lit door

Mr. Fearmellon. Fearmellon get these mutts away from me ya know
I don't find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard i can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty and Betty when you call me you can call me al

A man walks down the street he says why am i short of attention
Got a short little span of attention and woe my nights are so long
Where is my wife and family what if I die here
Who'll be my role model now that my role model is gone, gone

He ducked back down the alley with some rolly Polly little fat faced girl
All along long there were incidents and accidents
There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard i can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty and Betty when you call me you can call me al
Call me al

a man walks down the street, it's a street in a strange world maybe it's the

third world maybe it's his first time around doesn't speak the language he holds

no currency he is a foreign man he is surrounded by the sound, sound

Cattle in the marketplace scatter lings and orphanages
He looks around, around and sees angels in the architecture
Spinning in infinity he says amen Halijuah

if you'll be my bodyguard i can be your long lost pal
i can call you betty and betty when you call me you can call me al
call me na na na na, na na na nana na na na, na na na nananana
na na na na,nana nana na na ,na na na na, na na na nananana

If you'll be my bodyguard....I can call you Betty
If you'll be my bodyguard....I can call you Betty
If you'll be my bodyguard....
