What do I see to the right of me?
The man in 8473
He's got a rash where his sleeve's rolled up
And a swizzle stick in his pencil cup
And what do I see to the left of me?
It's Ginger from Parsippany
Her hair is brown and her face is red
Her labrador sleeps on the bed
And what do I see in front of me?
A hint of domesticity
The supervisor's little boys
With smiling faces, smiling toys
My chair is twenty stories high
I see you when you tell a lie
Where you ate and where you slept
The promises you never kept
You never kept
What do I see to the right of me?
A woman I would rather be
Taller, thinner, better skin
A dimple in her perfect chin
And what do I see to the left of me?
A man that I would rather be
The deeper voice and the dapper clothes
The leather shoes his girlfriend chose
Oh, tell me what is left of me
A great republic guarantee
The little kingdom that I rule
As empress of the invoice pool
My chair is twenty stories high
I see you when you tell a lie
Where you ate and where you slept
The promises you never kept
You never kept
My chair is twenty stories high
Another solitary night
I see that there's no guarantee
Oh, tell me what is left of me
What's left of me
