OLIVER HART - Song About A Song lyrics

I just want a send a special, special thank you today

Anyone who donated a little of something in the collection can

God won't forget you

Now this next song is a song about writing this song

Now I'm not some profound visionary

But this specific incision didn't particularly take too long

I was just running up this back stage stairs

And suddenly it dawned to me

What a good idea, true inspiration

But with no pen or paper to record the creation

I aborted the plans of grand innovation

And stood bored pacing on the wood floor waiting for more wars to

Gore for my planning and

Maybe I'm not cut out for this writing game

I thought for a brief second

But then it was like the lightning hit through me in a complete head spin

And kept punching me with raising concepts rhyme patterns and song interruptions

With long floods that dropped fire struck until I was finally finished

And in a matter of minutes consciousness is linked with being inventive infinite

And one of my friends happened to have a pen

So I wrote it all down on my hand

That was that

Thank you

We're just gonna

Thank you thank you

We're just gonna pass the collection around one more time

Try to find it in your pockets and your hearts to donate all your money

God won't forget you
