Danny Michel - Hartley Lyrics
With a smart-ass glare, you sink in your chair,and announce you've decided to cut off your hair.The casting director shuts down the projector,and throws up his arms in the air.Now you watch for your cue that you've once again missed,and deliver the most unconvincable kiss.The leading role curses, fumbles his verses and says,"I can't work like this."There's no way outI just can't winI feel like Wallace HartleyWhen the water came rushing inSo you step to the mic and swallow your cool,and spit out your words like a gun-wielding fool.Drunk with the power, the flourescent shower,of yellow and green and blue.You sharpen your teeth and stick where you stand,and you bite off the fingers of my helping hand.I know you're lying, so don't bother tryingto bury your head in the sand.There's no way outI just can't winI feel like Wallace HartleyWhen the water came rushing inAll the king's horses, and all the king's men,couldn't put you back together again.Did the ink stain your skin, the papers don't like.You crawl in a corner to curl up and die.There's no way outI just can't winI feel like Wallace HartleyWhen the water came rushing inNote: History buffs and Danny fans will note that Wallace Hartleywas the leader of the band that went down playing while theTitanic sunk.
