Résumé - Mouse On Mars

In my résumé

What will I say

About games I had to play

To try to get my way

In my résumé?

Shall I write about

How long my existence was in doubt?

Or do the things

I was ashamed to shout about

In my résumé?

Will I sing

‘Oh at last

My future’s become my past?'

I’ve seen the rocks of Alcatraz

In my résumé

I’m thinking as I’m writing

I’m sketching as I go

Trying to put into perspective

Things my children oughtta know

Gotta be so careful

I don’t lead minds astray

It’s how you read what’s written in the past

That makes the future style its way

In my résumé

What will I say

When it’s time for the right

To have a better, better

Much better way?

I had a hit record

It was a hit throughout the country

And it was a smash hit

Throughout the south

It’s called «Baby You Are My Everything»

(My eyes so that I can see

My lips, darling, so that I can speak

My nose so that I…)

And that’s what got me on the tour
