Harry's House-Centerpiece - Joni Mitchell[00:00:01]

Heatwaves on the runway[00:00:22]

As the wheels set down[00:00:25]

He takes his baggage off the carousel[00:00:28]

He takes a taxi into town[00:00:34]

Yellow schools of taxi fishes[00:00:41]

Jonah in a ticking whale[00:00:44]

Caught up at the light in the fishnet windows[00:00:48]

Of Bloomingdale's[00:00:53]

Watching those high fashion girls[00:00:58]

Skinny black models with Raveen curls[00:01:04]

Beauty parlor blondes with credit card eyes[00:01:08]

Looking for the chic and the fancy[00:01:12]

To buy[00:01:16]

He opens up his suitcase[00:01:26]

In the continental suite[00:01:29]

And people twenty stories down[00:01:34]

Colored currents in the street[00:01:39]

A helicopter lands on the Pan Am roof[00:01:46]

Like a dragonfly on a tomb[00:01:49]

And business men in button downs[00:01:53]

Press into conference rooms[00:01:59]

Battalions of paper-minded males[00:02:03]

Talking commodities and sales[00:02:08]

While at home their paper wives[00:02:11]

And paper kids[00:02:14]

Paper the walls to keep their gut reactions hid[00:02:17]

Yellow checkers for the kitchen[00:02:39]

Climbing ivy for the bath[00:02:42]

She is lost in House and Gardens[00:02:45]

He's caught up in Chief of Staff[00:02:51]

He drifts off into the memory[00:02:58]

Of the way she looked in school[00:03:01]

With her body oiled and shining[00:03:05]

At the public swimming pool [00:03:11]

The more I'm with you pretty baby[00:03:37]

The more I feel my love increase[00:03:43]

I'm building all my dreams around you[00:03:49]

Our happiness will never cease[00:03:56]

'Cause nothing's any good without you[00:04:02]

Baby you're my centerpiece[00:04:09]

We'll find a house and garden somewhere[00:04:55]

Along a country road a piece[00:05:01]

A little cottage on the outskirts[00:05:08]

Where we can really find release[00:05:14]

'Cause nothing's any good without you[00:05:21]

Baby you're my centerpiece[00:05:27]

* * *[00:05:31]

Shining hair and shining skin[00:05:50]

Shining as she reeled him in[00:05:55]

To tell him like she did today[00:05:59]

Just what he could do with Harry's House[00:06:04]

And Harry's take home pay[00:06:08]
