Cleopatra - Danny Schmidt[00:00:00]

She told me that her name[00:00:14]

Was Cleopatra when we met[00:00:16]

And I didn't mind at[00:00:20]

All though she was lying I suspect[00:00:22]

I told her I'm the emperor[00:00:27]

Of all that I survey[00:00:30]

“You can call me Alexander” --[00:00:33]

Well she said that was great[00:00:37]

Going round this old mobile [00:00:40]

Going round[00:00:43]

It's just as easy talking up[00:00:47]

As talking down[00:00:50]

She told me 'bout a boyfriend[00:00:55]

Who'd proposed in middle school[00:00:58]

And stories of her family I could[00:01:02]

Tell she wished were true[00:01:05]

It was Christmas in the Catskills[00:01:08]

And Easter on the cape[00:01:12]

And Mama married money [00:01:16]

And Daddy by mistake[00:01:19]

Going round this old mobile [00:01:22]

Going round[00:01:25]

It's just as easy talking up[00:01:29]

As talking down[00:01:32]

And I told her 'bout the time[00:01:37]

I got arrested in the park[00:01:39]

For kissing after curfew[00:01:43]

And then for talking smart[00:01:47]

And as they drove me to the station house [00:01:50]

In cuffs and in conceit[00:01:54]

I found a quarter bag of weed[00:01:57]

That'd been stuffed down in the seat[00:02:01]

Going round this old mobile [00:02:04]

Going round[00:02:07]

It's just as easy talking up[00:02:11]

As talking down[00:02:14]

I told her 'bout the incident[00:02:19]

With fireworks and doves[00:02:22]

And she told me about Somoa[00:02:25]

And lilikoi and love[00:02:29]

And we compared our notes[00:02:32]

On marketplaces Brownsville and Bombay[00:02:34]

And how the story of your life[00:02:39]

Is always yours to trade away[00:02:42]

Going round this old mobile [00:02:46]

Going round[00:02:49]

It's just as easy talking up[00:02:53]

As talking down[00:02:56]

But when things got quiet [00:03:01]

She got far[00:03:04]

And I caught a tiny glimpse[00:03:09]

Of Cleopatra's heart[00:03:12]

Curled up in candlelight at home[00:03:18]

And her fingers smelled[00:03:25]

Like cigarettes and another night alone[00:03:26]

There comes a time[00:03:49]

In every barroom night[00:03:50]

When the light starts getting strange[00:03:52]

And the shadows and the highlights start[00:03:56]

To cross and start to change[00:03:59]

In the hollow of her cheekbones[00:04:03]

Hid both fantasy and flight[00:04:06]

As she kissed me on the lips[00:04:10]

And disappeared into the night[00:04:13]

Going round this old mobile [00:04:17]

Going round[00:04:21]

It's just as easy talking up[00:04:25]

As talking down[00:04:28]

Going round this old mobile [00:04:32]

Going round[00:04:35]

It's just as easy talking up[00:04:40]

As talking down[00:04:43]

It's just as easy talking up as talking down[00:04:47]
