Bodyguard

Paul Simon

a man walks down the street

he says why am i soft in the middle now

why am i soft in the middle

but rest of my life is so hard

i need a photo opportunity

i want a shop redemption

don't wanna end up a cartoon

in a cartoon graveyard

ohh yeah ohh yeah

dogs in the moonlight

far away my well lit moon

Mr. beer belly beer belly

get these mutts away from me

i don't find this stuff amusing anymore



if you'll be my bodyguard

i can be your long lost pal

i can call you betty

and betty when you call me

you can call me al



a man walks down the street

he says why am i short in attention

got a short little span of attention

and whoa my nights are so long

where's my wife and family

what if i die here

who will be my role model

now that my role model is gone gone

creeped up back down the alley

with some rolly polly little bap faced girl all alone alone

there were incidents and accidents

there were hints and allegations



if you'll be my bodyguard

i can be your long lost pal

i can call you betty

and betty when you call me

you can call me al, call me al



a man walks down the street

its an extremely strange world

maybe its the third world

or maybe its his first time around

doesn't speak the language

holds no currency

he is a foreign man

he is surrounded by the sound sound

cattle in the marketplace

scattering rings of orphanages

he looks around around

he sees angels in the architecture

spinning in infinity he says hey alleiluyah



if you'll be my bodyguard

i can be your long lost pal

i can call you betty

and betty when you call me

you can call me al,

call me al



nanananana.....

hmmm hmmm

hm hmm

hmmm hmmm

hm hmm



i can call you betty

if you'll be my bodyguard (2x)
