roman clay (27 bc) - roman à clef lyrics
i took a train today
to help you on your way
to a life of respectability
i have always respected your agility
our friends have all grown up
no kids
some still kids at 27
told me it hasn’t been the same
i agree completely
you used to live with all your friends
now you make plans to spend time
with people you don’t want to see
thats the cost of growing up
he said to you
but i don’t buy it
have you thought this whole thing through?
you said:
“i want to knit you a letter
i want to write you a love sweater”
cadence sure but undeserved
everyone laughed
but you’ve been thinking ever since
about the virtue of the statement you have never been so sure
your heart’s like an open book
full of misdirection
and red herrings
a roman a clef or two
