paroles de chanson Harry's House / Centerpiece - Joni Mitchell
Heatwaves on the runway as the wheels set down
He takes his baggage off the carousel, he takes a taxi into town
Yellow schools of taxi fishes, Jonah in a ticking whale
Caught up at the lights in the fishnet windows of Bloomingdale's
Watching those high fashion girls
Skinny black models with raven curls
And beauty parlor blondes with credit card eyes
Looking for the chic and the fancy to buy
He opens up his suitcase in the continental suite
And people 30 stories down look like colored currents in the street
A helicopter lands on the Pan Am roof like a dragonfly on a tomb
And businessmen in button downs press into conference rooms
Battalions of paper-minded males
Talking commodities and sales
While at home, their paper wives and paper kids
Paper the walls to keep their gut reactions hid
Yellow checkers for the kitchen, climbing ivy for the bath
She is lost in House and Gardens, he's caught up in Chief of Staff
He drifts off into the memory of the way she looked in school
With her body oiled and shining at the public swimming pool
The more I'm with you, pretty baby
The more I feel my love increase
I'm building all my dreams around you
Our happiness will never cease
'Cause nothing's any good without you
Baby, you're my centerpiece
We'll find a house and garden somewhere
Along a country road a piece
A little cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
'Cause nothing's any good without you
Baby, you're my centerpiece
Shining hair and shining skin
Shining as she reeled him in
To tell him like she did today
Just what he could do with Harry's House
And Harry's take-home pay
