Washing dishes Monday morn
China cups and spoons
Ones made of silver like the moon
(Here's the moon, are you alright?)
Reading loud the comic strips
No one ever hears
And no one understands my fears
(The story book seems to call)
Oh, walking up the stairs
Talking to the walls
Life never tells a tale
And rags to dust never fails
Goodnight, oh
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
We're leaving right now for the sky
His yellow daffodils are growing girls
And lovely music
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
I wonder if it will be raining
Say hi to Jane and thank you for the tea
Flying up where eagles dare
To compromise and settle for
The trailer money buys
(It seems his money was alright)
Crazy smiles come cheap today
Everybody laughs
I wonder why I'm not out there
(And all my friends they will follow)
Oh, living on your own
Nothing much to do
Life doesn't always care
While you and me
We stand and stare
Goodbye, oh
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
We're leaving right now for the sky
His yellow daffodils are growing girls
And lovely music
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
I wonder if it will be raining
Say hi to Jane and thank you for the tea
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
We're leaving right now for the sky
His yellow daffodils are growing girls
And lovely music
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
I wonder if it will be raining
Say hi to Jane and thank you for the tea
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
We're leaving right now for the sky
His yellow daffodils are growing girls
And lovely music
So Mrs. Marble, goodbye
I wonder if it will be raining
Say hi to Jane and thank you for the tea
