What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The motel lights were blinkin'
2
On my chartreuse four door lincoln
3
On the dock the fish were stinkin'
4
I simply didn't have a care
5
And the old men sit 'round the cracker barrels
6
The children hum their christmas carols
7
The train tracks all run parallel
8
But they'll all meet up one day
9
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
10
Sits the devil playing pocket pool
11
He's waiting for the next poor fool
12
Who forgot that it was sunday
13
We used to tell each other lies
14
With our orange plastic button eyes
15
In a former life on a motel chair
16
I was charlie parker's teddy bear
17
Yeah, me and bird we'd stay up late
18
I used to watch him contemplate
19
While his horn would sit by the window and
20
Wait till it was time for him to blow it
21
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
22
Sits the devil playing pocket pool
23
He's waiting for the next poor fool
24
Who forgot that it was sunday
25
The only song I ever knew
26
Was "moonlight bay on the avenue"
27
These are the tales from the devil's chin
28
Charlie I could've been a contender
29
And the old men sit round the cracker barrels
30
The children hum their christmas carols
31
The train tracks all run parallel
32
But they'll all meet up one day
33
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
34
Sits the devil playing pocket pool
35
He's waiting for the next poor fool
36
Who forgot that it was sunday
37
Who forgot that it was sunday.
