The Boy Named If

歌詞

I'm a lucky so and so A fortunate stiff You said you'd never knew me but I'm the one you want to be with If I tumble from a tightrope or leap from a cliff I won't be dashed to pieces I'm the boy named If If I disappear and I slipper from your view I just step upon a crack and I won't come back Imagine me And I'll imagine you too In a hollow of the bed sheet Or a picture in a frame I'm vivid as a summer's day Then never seen again Who'll pay the taxman? Who'll place the blame? Who'll point into an empty room And whisper my name? If I disappear and I slipper from your view You will step upon a crack and I won't come back Imagine me And I'll imagine you too Take my hand We'll go to "Magic Lantern Land" Take my hand See the pictures they've projected Take my hand We'll fill our pockets up with sand Dance in frantic passes Till the grains all turn to glasses Drums begin to navigate, the band strikes up a riff No one will believe you but the boy named If Who'll pay your entrance fee? Who'll leave a tip? Who'll say, "Listen here, Sunshine Don't you give me no lip" Who broke your favourite heart? Who stops and never starts? Who kiss you stupid? It must be something you did Who'll keep you satisfied after a lover's tiff? It must be some other guy not the boy named If If I disappear and I slipper from your view You will step upon a crack and I won't come back Imagine me And I'll imagine you too Take my hand We'll go to "Magic Lantern Land" Take my hand See the pictures we've projected Take my hand We'll fill our pockets up with sand Dance in frantic passes Till the grains all turn to glasses
