Fred Jones Part 2 (Live Kings Park in Perth Australia 3/12/03) - Ben Folds Rufus Wainwright[00:00:01]
Fred sits alone at his desk in the dark[00:00:14]
There's an awkward young shadow that waits in the hall[00:00:19]
He has packed all his things[00:00:25]
And he's put them in boxes[00:00:27]
Things that remind him that life has been good[00:00:30]
Twenty five years he's worked at the paper[00:00:36]
A man's to take downstairs[00:00:41]
And I'm sorry mr jones it's time[00:00:48]
There was no party and there were no songs[00:01:06]
'Cause today's just a day like the day that he started[00:01:10]
And no one is left here that knows his first name[00:01:17]
Yeah and life barrels on like a runaway train[00:01:22]
Where the passengers change[00:01:27]
They don't change anything[00:01:30]
You get off[00:01:33]
Someone else can get on[00:01:34]
And I'm sorry mr jones it's time[00:01:41]
The streetlight it shines through the haze[00:01:58]
Casting lines on the floor[00:02:03]
And lines on his face[00:02:06]
He reflects on the day[00:02:09]
Fred gets his paints out and goes to the basement[00:02:49]
Projecting some slides onto a plain white canvas[00:02:54]
And traces it[00:03:01]
Fills in the spaces[00:03:02]
He turns off the slides[00:03:05]
And it doesn't look right[00:03:08]
Yeah and all of these bastards have taken his place[00:03:10]
He's forgotten but not yet gone[00:03:16]
And I'm sorry mr jones[00:03:24]
And I'm sorry mr jones[00:03:29]
And I'm sorry mr jones it's time[00:03:35]
