Laurie Anderson Sharkey's Night (Album Version) Lyrics

Sun's going down
Like a big bald head
Disappearing behind the boulevard (Oooeee)
It's Sharkey's night. Yeah, It's Sharkey's night tonight.
And the manager says: Sharkey?
He's not at his desk right now. (Oh yeah)
Could I take a message?
And Sharkey says: Hey, Kowasabe! Long time no see
He says: Hey sport
You connect the dots
You pick up the pieces
He says: You know, I can see two tiny pictures of myself
And there's one in each of you eyes
And they're doin' everything I do
Every time I light a cigarette, they light up theirs
I take a drink and I look in and they're drinkin' too
It's drivin' me crazy
It's drivin' me nuts
And Sharkey says: Deep in the heart of darkest America
Home of the brave
He says: Listen to my heart beat
Paging Mr. Sharkey. White courtesy telephone please
