Player Piano Lyrics - 7 Mary 3

Play me like a player piano 

Roll me from the corners 

Of your dark and dusty shadows 

Like a player piano I sit useless 

Most of the time 

The bar gets darker 

It swallows up the scarlet 

The barkeep looking thin 

We sit together until only the piano 

Of the player remains 

Tell me why you won't keep it 

Tie me up in a shoe-string box 

She don't keep it if, she don't need it 

Get me out of the deep end 

My legs are dangling over the roof 

The room gets brighter 

When I can see inside her 

When I can turn the switch 

But she's so together 

I can do the damage and 

She can manage the flames
