Sparks

Sparks is an American rock and pop band formed in Los Angeles in 1971 by brothers Ron (keyboards) and Russell Mael (vocals), renamed from Halfnelson. Best known for their quirky approach to songwriting, Sparks' music is often accompanied by intelligent, sophisticated, and acerbic lyrics, and an idiosyncratic, theatrical stage presence, typified in the contrast between Russell's wide-eyed hyperactive frontman antics and Ron's sedentary scowling. They are also noted for Russell Mael's falsetto voice and Ron Mael's keyboard style. more »

Out of the doorway, into the morning  Wish I was a bird that was migratory  Spoken half in jest, catch the bird that's in my nest  Out of the doorway, into the morning  All of them seem to be selling something  Illegal substances, or an hour with no kisses  Though I am tempted, they are pre-empted  You and your rosary are exempted  From criminality, still there is a duality  You'll never know it, I'll never show it    Only I hear it, only I know that  What's apropos for me, may for thee be blasphemy    And the hills are alive with the sound of music    CHORUS:  When I kiss you, when I kiss you  I hear Charlie Parker playing  Will I miss you, will I miss you  When the playing ends one night  When I kiss you, when I kiss you  I hear Charlie Parker playing  Will I miss you, will I miss you  When I finally see the light    Where are they going, what are they doing  Who are they chasing, who are they suing  It all ends up OK in this Tennessee Williams play  What are they facing, who are they casing  When you're attacked, tell me, who are you macing  For me it's all just fine, 'cause she's a Frank Lloyd Wright design  The finest of material  A little asymmetrical  But that's the way it goes, my love for her just grows and grows  It's bigger than Fuji, bigger than Fuji  Sometimes she's a little screwy  But all that is offset when we dispense with etiquette    And the hills are alive with the sound of music    CHORUS    Out of the doorway, into the morning  Wish I was a bird that was predatory  Spoken half in jest, catch the bird that's in my nest  There's rebel advances, labor disputes  Somebody's shot and somebody shoots  And hits the bullseye -bam- captured on a portacam    And the hills are alive with the sound of music
