Heat waves on the runway
As the wheels set down
He takes his baggage off the carousel
He takes a taxi into town
Yellow schools of taxi fishes
Jonah in a ticking whale
Caught up at the lights in the fishnet windows
Of Bloomingdale's
Watching those high fa- shion girls
E♭M7
Skinny black models with Raveen curls
Beauty parlor blondes with credit card eyes
E♭M7
Looking for the chic and the fancy
To buy
He opens up his suitcase
In the continental suite
And people thirty stories down
E♭M7
Look like colored currents in the street
A helicopter lands on the Pan Am roof
Like a dragonfly on a tomb
And businessmen in button-downs
Press into conference rooms
Battalions of paper- min- ded males
E♭M7
Talking commodities and sales
While at home their paper wi- ves
And their paper kids
E♭M7
Paper the walls to keep their gut reactions hid
Yellow checkers for the kitchen
Climbing ivy for the bath
She is lost in House and Gardens
E♭M7
He's caught up in Chief of Staff
He drifts off into the memory
Of the way she looked in school
With her body oiled and shining
At the public swimming pool...
***
The more I'm with you pretty baby
The more I feel my love increase
I'm building all my dreams around you
Our happiness will never cease
'Cause nothing's any good without you
Baby you're my centerpiece
We'll find a house and garden somewhere
Along a country road a piece
A little cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
'Cause nothing's any good without you
Baby you're my centerpiece
***
...Shining ha- ir and shining skin
E♭M7
Shining as she reeled him in
To tell him like she did today
E♭M7
Just what he could do with Harry's House
And Harry's take-home pay
