Joe Iconis - Right Place / Wrong Time текст песни

Исполнитель: Joe Iconis

альбом: Album


Well, I'm a writer
A writer of songs
Pretty little ditties and sing-alongs
So, I ain't made a dime in a while
I been hittin' the circuit
To sell my wares
Gotta lotta material, nobody cares
They tell me that my song's gone outta style
Mmhmm, Hey hey
I score a showcase
Some big Record Man
I know by the end he's gonna be my fan
I play my music bit by bit
My hands are shaking
My head is hot
He sneezes and he fidgets, says:
"What else you got?"
I shrug, and I'm like That was it
He says: "If you'd been in here in '73
You're the kind that I woulda signed instantly
But its now, not then, and if I may be bold
Your material just feels a little old"
I walk out his office, head fulla strife
Cuz this is the story of my life
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
And it's a short walk, but a long climb
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I'm in the right song with the wrong rhyme
Is there a space where I belong?,
I'm just in the right place at the wrong time
Hey Hey
Is there anybody else who feels this way?
I am a singer
My dreams are big
But producer's minds are small
So I can't get a gig
And I've been at it for a while
In my Corolla
I drive around
From audition to audition
They don't like my sound
Tell me my singing's out of style
Singing in a bar, owner looks at my face
Says I remind him of a girl
Who used to work in this place
"She made it real big,
But that was way back when
You'd be set if you'd had been around then"
I throw back a whiskey, then one more
Because I've heard it all before
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
And it's a short walk, but a long climb
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I'm in the right song with the wrong rhyme
Is there a space where I belong?, I'm
Just in the right place at the wrong time
Hey Hey
Is there anybody else who feels this way?
Mmhm
I leave the building
Walk out the bar
I head for the street
And I get in my car
I'm praying, lord, please send some kinda sign
Then I see a woman
Her eyes are deep and black
Through my windshield,
There's a man with a guitar on his back
I wonder if her/his life is just like mine
Stare at each other
Feelings hypnotize
We never break the contact from each other's eyes
Even as she accidentally mows me down
Now he's bloody on the pavement
And I am close to death
And I can smell the alcohol upon her breath
And I hear sirens coming from across town
And now my song is done and my life is too
And my story is a testament to all those who
Are in the
Right place at the wrong time
And it's a short walk, but a long climb
I'm in the right place at the wrong time
I'm in the right song with the wrong rhyme
Is there a space where I belong?, I'm
Just in the right place at the wrong time
We're in the right place at the wrong time
And it's a short walk, but a long climb
We're in the right place at the wrong time
We're in the right song,
With the wrong rhyme
Is there a space where we belong, I'm
Just in the right place at the wrong time
Hey Hey
Now I'm not the only person who feels this way
Hey-hey, Hey-hey, Hey-hey
Hey-Hey-yay-yay
Hey-Hey-yay-yay
Hey-Hey-yay-yay
Hey-hey
Mmhm
Mmhm
Right Place
Wrong Time
