There's a portrait of Uncle Alvarez Hangin' in the hall Nobody wants to look at it But Uncle Alvarez sees us all Oh, oh, oh imaginary accomplishments Hey, hey, hey you visionary guy You might even shake the hands of presidents Better send a postcard and keep the family quiet He's not really part-Cherokee Indian He didn't fight in the Civil War He's just Eugene Isaac Alvarez He feels sorry for the wall Oh, oh, oh imaginary accomplishments Hey, hey, hey you visionary guy You might even shake the hands of presidents You're gonna make 'em sorry when you die And it's a long way down You were hoping for a heart-attack Running around, investing on this and that Your beautiful wife keeps your life on a shelf for you Safe in a better way There's no dust or mildew and It's hard to believe you were once a beautiful dancer Better just to shake it off As you write your resume Don't think of Uncle Alvarez And the price he had to pay Oh, oh, oh imaginary accomplishments Hey, hey, hey you visionary guy You might even shake the hands of presidents You're gonna make them sorry when you die Oh, oh, oh imaginary accomplishments Hey, hey, hey you visionary guy You might even shake the hands of presidents Better send some money to the Alma Mater.
