Quietly Making Noise
2
By: Jimmy Buffett, Michael Tschudin
3
1993
4
Oscar Wilde died in bed
5
Several floors above my head
6
Living well beyond his means
7
In that crazy Paris scene
8
Rain falls down in sheets so clear
9
And no one ever calls me hear
10
Travelin' by myself these days
11
I'm into jazz and felt berets
12
Far from that old Eastern shore
13
Searchin' for strange metaphors
14
I don't want to be another victim of fashion
15
No I don't want to see my name in the paper each day
16
Hey you can leave that to the young Turks
17
They're handsome and dashing
18
Posing for paparazzi's down laguna way
19
Now down in the metro I feel the world start to multiply
20
Bastille, rubber wheels, spiked heels
21
Subterranean lullaby
22
Met an African prancer, a hemisphere dancer
23
Spied the ghost of Brassens
24
We smiled at the secret we shared
25
And I hid it like contraband
26
Quietly making noise (quietly making noise)
27
Starts with kindergarten toys
28
Not too soft, not too loud
29
Just enough to draw a crowd
30
Quietly, quietly, quietly making noise
31
Followed the beat
32
Hey I found myself in this patois spot
33
Outside a blizzard was blowin'
34
But inside the joint was hot
35
Zouk songs, rubber thongs, sing-a-longs
36
The words flew right by my face
37
You know rhythm and motion's a blamma jamma potion
38
You cannot erase
39
Quietly making noise (quietly making noise)
40
Pissin' off the old kill-joys
41
Glasspacks on an hot Mustang
42
A telecaster with a twang
43
Quietly, quietly, quietly making noise
44
Yes
45
Singers and writers and poets
46
Have flocked here for centuries
47
The city of light is built upon mountains of memories
48
Baritone saxophones, monotones
49
Speak with a voice I've heard before
50
It's a lasting impression
51
A gypsy expression you cannot ignore
52
We're quietly making noise (quietly making noise)
53
Starts with kindergarten toys
54
Not too soft, not too loud
55
Just enough to draw a crowd
56
Quietly, quietly, quietly making noise
57
Yeah, we're quietly making noise (quietly making noise)
58
Pissin' off the old kill-joys
59
Not too soft, not too loud
60
Just enough to draw a crowd
61
We're quietly, quietly, quietly
62
Quietly, quietly, quietly
63
Quietly, quietly, quietly making noise
64
That's right, ooh yeah
65
A whole lot of beautiful noise
66
--Spoken:
67
"Oh come on children, play those, play those kindergarten toys.
68
Everybody's a drummer tonight. All right. Let it ring now, let
69
it ring."
