Lousy Butterfly Songtext
von Stephen Clair

Joyous screams
Coming from the parking lot
The sky just opened up
The heavens have a way
Of sweeping us away

It gives us something to talk about
Most days I just hide out
I hear people come and go
Here I am but they don′t know
I'm locked inside with my piano

Oh!
That lousy butterfly
You so much as blink an eye
Don′t act so surprised


In that instant
If it hadn't flapped its wings
I might have rolled this piano
Right outside
Let my freak flag fly
Then we'd be singing in the rain

Don′t make me explain
How one drop of rain
Can change everything

All the world could have turned out
Upside down or inside out
Sens dessus dessous
C′est chou vert et vert chou
If it's all the same to you

In another dimension
Place or time
I might put your drink on ice
Instead of fire
Wouldn′t that have been nice
No dice

Oh!
That lousy butterfly
You so much as blink an eye
You might not recognize


Oh!
That lousy butterfly
You so much as blink an eye
Don't act so surprised
