Bruce Hornsby - Paperboy Lyrics
Let's all keep our voices low, here's a story you don't know
As good as anything we can't watch on HBO
Before you say it's all bunk or throw it out as so much junk
Listen what this guy's been hiding in his trunk
He'll cut off your feet just to take your shoes
There was that little girl, pink ribbon, auburn curls
Who ended up as cargo and then taken for a whirl
He must've given her a whack, pre-teen surprise attack
She ended up between the guys' spare tire and his jack
He's looking for me, he's looking for you
He'll cut off your feet just to take your shoes
Believe you me, every word is true
In his kitchen there's a corpse, made a meal of his divorce
Eats a different body part for every different course
In his basement there's a crypt, it's so well, well equipped
He's seen so many ghoulish things they now seem nondescript
He's looking for me, he's looking for you
Another peep and we'll be through
He's looking for me, he's looking for you
He'll cut off your feet just to take your shoes

Interesting...
If you like this, you'll love his new(er) double live cd!
Bruce is the man to write such an awesome creepy song.
effing awesome
The piece he's playing until 1:20 is the Gavotte from Suite op. 25 (NOT the Concerto) of Arnold Schoenberg. Interesting hearing it played by Bruce Hornsby...
He plays it a little on the slow side, and I think he misses a few notes, but he plays it with the kind of rhythmic energy one would expect from a rock pianist. It's stiff, but he makes it groove an an appealing way.
At any rate, the piece is notoriously complex and difficult, so I gotta hand it to him. Very cool.
Ahh, it was another young guy i was talking music with,lol. Jonny Lang bud, only foud him myself a couple of months ago, bloody awesome talent. One of his very early albums[16 odd!!]Lie To Me..is excellent, Still Raining is also a gem among many, brilliant young guitarist, even at 13!!!!. Hes in his late twenties now, i prefer his early stuff, give him a listen:) Yeh,lol...it blew alright...had a bloody good 5 years though,lol
