COYOTE FROM CENTRAL PARK

CAME ACROSS THE G.W.B.
LAST NIGHT ABOUT THE HOUR OF THREE
JUST ANOTHER WEARY IMMIGRANT
YEARNING TO BE FREE

NOSED AROUND CHINATOWN
SEARCHING FOR SOME SCRAPS
FOUND A PARK IN THE BOWERY
AND STOPPED THERE FOR A NAP

STANDING IN TIMES SQUARE
STARING AT THE NEON LIGHTS
HAD TO DODGE A GYPSY CAB
RACING THROUGH THE NIGHT

FOLLOWED A LADY UP
PARK AVENUE
IN HER CHINCHILLA COAT
WITH LEOPARD PANTS
AND A ZEBRA SCARF AROUND HER THROAT

I’M THE COYOTE FROM CENTRAL PARK
AND I’M ONLY PASSING THROUGH
WHILE GERSHWIN PLAYS THE OPENING THEME
FROM RHAPSODY IN BLUE

OUT IN FRONT OF THE PLAZA
HANSOM CABS WAITING FOR A FARE
THE PERFUME OF WEALTH AND POWER
LINGERING IN THE AIR

MY APPROACHING SCENT
SPOOKS THE TIRED HORSES
FOR, EVEN IN HIGH SOCIETY
THERE ARE GREATER FORCES

BACK BEHIND THE DAKOTA
RUMMAGING THROUGH THE GARBAGE CANS
JOHN WAS THE WALRUS
BUT TONIGHT, I AM THE EGGMAN
GOO GOOG A JOOG! AHOOOOO!
