Wish I could be just a little less dramatic
Like a Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames
Leave it to me to be holdin’ the matches
When the fire trucks show up and there’s nobody else to blame
You catch a shiver in the dark
It's a-rainin in the park
But meantime, south of the river,
You stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
And you feel alright
when you hear the music play
