Karey Likes to Sing Lyrics by Keep Left

Keep Left

0

Just another humiliation
Kow-towing to the boss
Forty hours of kissing his ass
Karey just wants to get lost
He keeps missing promotions
A train just passing him by
It doesn't really cause a big commotion
He's the only one who wonders why
He looks around the office
He sees pity in everyone's eyes
If they could just see him in action, man, they'd get a big surprise
Karey doesn't want to make it better
He wants to forget it's bad
He tips the doorman a dollar and gives him a smile that's a little bit sad
He hears strains of
'Yesterday, all my troubles seemеd so far away'
'Come to me my Melancholy Baby'
Hе picks up the microphone
He's ready for the show
'cause in here he's Frank Sinatra or maybe Barry Manilow
Karey likes to sing
Karey likes to croak into the microphone
He likes to follow the bouncing ball around 'till everybody else goes home
Karey likes to dance
Look at him
He's shaking with all his might
Karey isn't looking for an audience
But is Karey okay tonight?
He lives his life in an empty orchestra
Just a couple of beers and he's drowning SRO
He's not that different from the rest of us
We don't all have the need to be big stars
But sometimes we gotta let go
2 a.m. the bar is empty
Karey stands alone on the stage
Video screens all standing dim leave him feeling twice his age
No more strains of
'Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away'
'Come to me my Melancholy Baby'
Before he puts down the microphone
He kisses it like a wife
He doesn't mean to be all alone
But he guesses that's his life
Karey likes to sing...
