Only Takes a Few (bonus track)

作曲 : Jonathan Larson

"Almost missed this one", he said

I stared at the honky-tonk piano

Sure beats living in town

The beaches are half a mile away

"Not much of the cat", I said

He stared down underneath the couch

It doesn't matter much to me

Not gonna beat it, anyway

It only takes a few cents more to go first class

First class only takes a few

It only takes a few cents more to go first class

First class only takes a few

"It's called 'quintessence", I said

She stared at an Oreo cookie in black and white

After water, earth, air and fire

The fifth and highest play

"Lobster okay?" She said

I stared at her refrigerator door

There'll be enough for the guy in the attic

What's his name?

It only takes a few cents more to go first class

First class only takes a few

It only takes a few cents more to go first class

First class only takes a few

Shared a floor with Nashville

The burger queen bought herself a pearl

A bloke named Bo but not bout skin

With art and a very pretty Cali girl

Downstairs, two Spanish lovers were singing along

With some domestic dang horn

I had to pinch myself, what a hell of a house I'd stumble on

"June, July, August", she said

They stared at the summer about to fade away

Damn good three months of my life

I remember now what living is

"The cat's now a cat", I say

You stared at the honky-tonk piano man

Watch your step

I just met Oliver, the lobster's his

It only takes a few good friends to be first class

First class only takes a few

It only takes a few good friends to be first class

First class only takes a few

First class only takes a few

It only takes a few

It only takes a few

It only takes a few

Long live the island

Long live the island

Long live the island
