I'm Still Standing
Way back in '85, I was filling out forms
The mood was light and hearts were warm.
I was filling the day shift,
Some tired old facility,
When some old friend of mine decided on my
Incredibility!
Refrain:
I'm still standing, yeah, I'm still in the wings,
And he's out there fighting still,
And all I do is sing...
But g-d help him to overcome,
These awful things he knows
It's all that anyone knows,
All that anyone knows.
With the money that I got back,
From my income tax returns,
I had money in my pocket,
Still had some to burn
I didn't want to "go down", man,
So goddam sure he knows...
I bought myself a V.C.R. with 225 bucks-
Said, "When you spend the last hot cent,
You're out of luck, my friend".
I worked five months, and then I ducked,
Safe in the arm of the law, you see,
Concurrent interception,
of wages and ...you know...disability!
No, no, no, no, no, but:
Chorus:
I dunno. Nowadays, they're singin' everything.
I thought i'd pray and confess....
"See that boy with the stagefright...
Standing up there singing with all his might.
He got caught in the spotlight...
And when he gets to the end,
He gets to start all over again"-
Dedicated to Robbie Robertson
"Stagefright"....The Band
I'm gonna pack it all in here....
