Pere Ubu - Goodnite Irene lyrics

Treat me like a carnival rain king Who blew apart in his own hurricane He's laughin' loud, a fool on a hill Who should know better, but he never will It's my calling And I'm falling Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it It's my calling And I'm falling Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it Treat me like a king bee Buggin' round in a hollow tree He's living high on borrowed time Intoxicated by the sound of his own crying It's my calling And I'm falling Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it It's my calling Had I fought it Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it Goodnight, Irene I see you in my dreams I play the part you know so well Long live Carnival rain king King bee The king of Mars They're all like me Treat me like the king of Mars He fell to Earth and ended up behind bars He tried to live in a one horse town His breaking heart tore the whole place down It's my calling And I'm falling Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it It's my calling And I'm falling Driven by the will of the wind I know it And I know it
