H eat waves on the runway
As the wheels set down
He takes his baggage off the carousel
He takes a taxi into town
Y ellow schools of taxi fishes
Jo nah in a ticking whale
Caught up at the lights in the fishnet windows
Of Bloomingdale's
Watching those high fa- shio n girls
Skinny black models with Raveen curls
Be auty parlor blondes with credit card eyes
Looking for the chic and the fancy
To buy
H e opens up his suitcase
In the co ntinental suite
And people thirty stories down
Look like colored currents in the street
A helicopter lands on the Pan Am roof
Li ke a dragonfly on a tomb
And businessmen in button-downs
Press into conference rooms
Battalions of paper- min- ded males
Talking commodities and sales
While at home their pa per wi- ves
And their paper kids
Paper the walls to keep their gut reactions hid
Y ellow checkers for the kitchen
Cli mbing ivy for the bath
She is lost in House and Gardens
He's caught up in Chief of Staff
H e drifts off into the memory
Of the wa y 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 m y 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 r oad a piece
A l ittle cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
'Cause nothing's any good without you
Baby you're my centerpiece

...Sh ining ha- ir a nd shinin g skin
Shining as she reeled him in
To te ll him like she did today
Just what he could do with Harry's House
And Harry's take-home pay
