from the songs album Songs From The West Coast
I'll take a rainy day
To make a champagne shower
Poach some horn and tusk
To build an ivory tower
Been to philadelphia
The day it was closed
I walked to new orleans
Down a louisiana road
The skeletons they hung from the bushes and the trees
But not a skull among 'em said boo to me
In a time of wine and cheap cigars
I'm on top of the world
Top of the world ma
Look ma no hands
Look ma ain't life grand
I'm a super power, i'm a handy man
Didn't i turn out, didn't i turn out to be
Everything you wanted ma
Ain't you proud of me
It takes a silver tongue
To have the midas touch
Not your alchemist
Making gold from rust
Been down in roswell
When the martians came
I sailed to mandeville
Across lake pontchartrain
