Two-thousand-eighteen Shades Of Bromford - Part 285


Today is Monday, the 8th of April 2024.

WE DID IT.

The squirrel was confused. Who did what?

WE ATE THE SUN.

One of the green lizards winked and whispered from under the stones.

Read the headlines, the lizard said.

TOTAL ECLIPSE ACROSS NORTH AMERICA.

WE DID IT.
THE ARMY OF THE
8 LIZARDS

"Hey Bromford!"

Guess what! Summer's arrived I feel the world's on my side
The Brooklyn Bridge stretches below me
A billion souls all dying to know me
Well here I am! Loaded with promise
And knee deep in grace
What I want is here on my face and
I feel like I own the whole damn place

Hey Bromford! Here I am! Call me star-struck Uncle Sam
Strolling Fifth Avenue - just to think Sinatra's been here too
These myths we can't undo they lie in wait for you
We live them till they're true
Bromford doobie doo. Hey Bromford doobie doo

Someday's you've got to get outside - look there's "The Carlyle"
That's the place where Kennedy stayed
And where were you when he died?
(Yeah some things are slow to fade)
There they were - loaded with promise
Knee deep in fate - when what you want shows on your face
All that's left litters the whole damn place

Hey Bromford! Here I am! Call it bad luck Uncle Sam
Scrounging Fifth Avenue - just to think the poor could live here too
But what are they to do? These myths belong to you
We live them till they're true
Bromford doobie doo, hey Bromford doobie doo
