He Went To Paris
In the style of
Lyrics
he went to paris
lookin' for answers
to questions that
bothered him so
he was impressive
young and
aggressive
saving the world
on his own
but the warm
summer breezes
the french wines
and cheeses
put his ambition
at bay
and summers
and winters
scattered
like splinters
and four or five
years slipped away
he went to england
and played the piano
and married an
actress named kim
they had a fine life
she was a good wife
and bore him a
young son named jim
and all of
the answers
and all of
the questions
locked in his attic
one day
'cause he liked
the quiet
clean country livin'
and twenty more
years slipped away
well the war
took his baby
the bombs
killed his lady
and left him
with only one eye
his body
was battered
his whole world
was shattered
and all he could do
was just cry
while the tears
were fallin'
he was recallin'
answers he
never found
so he hopped
on a freighter
and skidded
the ocean
and left england
without a sound
now he lives
in the islands
fishes and pilin's
and drinks his green
label each day
writing his memoirs
losing his hearing
but he don't care
what most people say
through
eighty-six years
of perpetual motion
if he likes you
he'll smile
and he'll say
jimmy some of it's
magic some of it's
tragic but i had
a good life
all the way
and he went to paris
lookin' for answers
to questions
that bothered him so
