I used to come here to think I used to watch the crowds of animals and clowns Spitting shortwave, dripping ink Half a worry here, half a note there You looked so beautiful Anita Ekberg in the fountain Such a spell on you Crashing wildly through the waltz Any other time but now When I'm looking in, not out Any other time your tongue would fill my mouth I was wrong to try But I thought I'd find My reflection in your eyes But now I come here to be seen My usual table here at the bottom of the stairs They keep their steely eyes on me Half a wonder here, half a glance there You look so beautiful Anita Ekberg in the fountain Nature's chemicals Roundly wound up in the warmth Any other time but now When I'm looking in, not out Any other time your tongue would fill my mouth I was wrong to try But I thought I'd find My reflection in your eyes
