Taken In Step of Piazza! The New York Catcher
Woah! Watch out! We're Dandy! and We're Lions! We're the Dandy Lions!
Story behind the song
I lived in Olympia.
Lyrics
Taken in step of Piazza! The New York Catcher!
Staring out my window trying to remember what to write
Words that use to come to me have drifted out of sight
Scribbled pages, tossed and torn, lie upon my floor;
Waiting for someone to adore
Neighbors knock and bring the beer that we all use to drink
Sitting down they pass around the cards to make us think
Share advice and roll the dice of the games they bought to play;
Telling us tomorrow is okay
Waiting at the corner store for someone passing by
You told me you would meet me here but that was just a lie
You score with words and jest and point at all things not cliché,
You’re still looking for that needle in the hay
Pensive notions pushing forth, taking back a line
Walking in the sunlight is mistaken for a crime
Laying down and fool around is more than what we thought
I didn’t know you would be distraught
Clapping hands and warming breaths brighten up the place
Pastors watching from the side and call it a disgrace
Picked it up and moved along and drove it all night long
Drowning out the sorrow with our song
