Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Walking down the street on a warm summer afternoon The sun made the trees shine bright The Devil's face in every shop window, pale as the moon Gave the day a sort of sickly light Walking to a corner shop and looking through the door A man behind the counter on a stool Behind him was a row of jars of something in liqueur And something like a painting of a ghoul A visiter in some unearthly realm, I stood outside Within the edifice of human thought Walking round the corner of the street, I spied A girl of pulchritude and leaves a nought She passed me by like sticky breezes in a bottle And disappeared like madness through the air I thought the choking asphalt air had come to me to throttle And I, the foolish victim, unaware The park of cars appeared to keep on never going So, in the shade I watched the throbbing pall So, I became the trees and the ever-all-unknowing And I melted in behind into the wall Does anyone have the time?
