Michael Zapruder That Is What I Want
People say a lazy holiday in the sun
Strolling round some grounds
Studying the sounds of the avifauna
Is so fine, and to have a glass of wine at midday
Then sleep a little bit by a watercolor kit
Is pure nirvana
Well, I don't know if it is
I don't know if it should be
I don't know if I could be satisfied that way
Today is not the day you will hear me say
That is what I want
Is it bad to sit and just feel sad in yourself and
Circle round a thought like a hapless cosmonaut
In melodrama?
Well, I don't know if it is
I don't know if it should be
I don't know if I could be satisfied that way
Today is not the day you will hear me say
That is what I want
Am I singing out to you
Like that bluebird on the bough?
Who knows, I might be singing vows
Is that it, am I trying to submit to love?
If the measure of a man is how much he can
Then I wanna
But I don't know if it is
I don't know if it should be
I don't know if I could be satisfied that way
Today is not the day you will hear me say
That is what I want
I don't know if it is
I don't know if it should be
I don't know if I could be satisfied that way
Today is not the day you will hear me say
That is what I want
