catharsis - jimmy webb lyrics
tell us once again this morning, old friend
how did you win the war?
everybody loves a hero
it won’t matter if they’ve heard your tale before
tell us of the time when almost everybody knew you were a star
and how “intelligent” you are
prove that you’re a right
mister “shuck and jive”
tell us of the maid who stole your fortune
and nearly ruined your life
or better still, the one about the t.v
and the couch and your best friend’s wife
tell us of the projects never finished, with somebody else to blame
and all the reasons that you’ve named
never did it right
mister “shuck and jive”
if you can get yourself together
kindly write a criticism of this song
how it’s exquisitely constructed
yet mechanical and somehow slightly wrong
and put it in your book about the enemy who owes you such a debt
you know you just might make it yet
but i don’t think you’ll survive
mister “shuck and jive”
you know you just might make it yet
mister “shuck and jive”
