Lyrics
i once knew a man, showed me the slight of hand, in the blink of an eye, he danced across the strings, played a song i'd never heard, poignant and absurd, to this day it leaves me wondering, how i wish tomorrow i were fishin', boy i've got a mission, shake it, rattle and roll, ah, now, just use your intuition, you'll get less competition, from the clock up on the wall, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me, play me a serenade, a simple masquerade, play on your blue guitar for me, 'cause we'll all make believe, someone to deceive, time is just a folly we can't see, you only know one song, play it right or wrong, the truth is always somewhere in between, you and i, we can't change the weather, and we're all in this together, so let the strong winds blow, ah, now things will be much better, if you don't become a prisoner, to the reason you should know, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me, play me a serenade, a simple masquerade, play on your blue guitar for me, how i wish tomorrow i were fishin', boy i've got a mission, shake it, rattle and roll, ah, now, just use you intuition, you'll get less competition, from the clock up on the wall, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me, play me a serenade, a simple masquerade, play on your blue guitar for me, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me, play me a serenade, red wine or lemonade, play on your blue guitar for me, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me, play me a serenade, a simple masquerade, play on your blue guitar for me, you are what you are, you dream what you dream, play on your blue guitar for me
