genie on a table top

• al stewart'ın famous last words albümünde ikamet eden şarkısı.
  
  i went floating down the street one day
  with a song playing in my mind
  hopping and bopping like a ricochet
  bad news was hard to find
  there was a hint of syncopation
  coming from the sidewalk and the street
  there was a glint of scintillation
  hanging over everyone you'd meet
  and it makes me feel okay
  like a big yellow tractor going mowing through a field of hay
  like a genie on a table top surfing through the month of may
  
  i saw a world in the window of a knick-knack shop
  and i tossed it in the air
  a girl went by with a forget-me-not
  and she wore it in her hair
  there was a peak of pixillation
  and i never noticed it before
  there was a jump of jubilation
  and it seemed to promise more and more
  and it makes me feel okay
  like a big yellow tractor going mowing through a field of hay
  like a genie on a table top surfing through the month of may
  
  oh she loves me and she loves me
  better than i've ever loved myself
  she knows me and she loves me
  better, now i want nobody else
  oh she loves me and she loves me
  better than i've ever loved myself
  she knows me and she loves me
  better, now i want nobody else
  
  percolating through the noonday sun
  with wings upon my shoes
  i was jumping about in front of everyone
  no dignity to lose
  there was a rush of animation
  bubbling about inside my soul
  there was a rin-tin-tabulation coming
  it was so hard to control
  and it makes me feel okay
  like a pig with a bucket full of truffles in a french cafe
  like louis armstrong playing trumpet on the judgment day
  like a flying boat captain with an amethyst lake below
  like a winner of a marathon rolling in a field of snow
  like a figure skating gigolo looking for a heart to steal
  like a simulated orgasm suddenly becoming real
  like a big yellow tractor going bowling through a field of hay
  like a genie on a table top surfing through the month of may
