Nowadays Clancy Cant Even Sing
Whos that stomping all over my face?
Wheres that silhouette Im trying to trace?
Whos putting sponge in the bells I once rung
And taking my gypsy before shes begun
To singing the meaning of whats in my mind
Before I can take home whats rightfully mine.
Joinin and listenin and talkin in rhymes
Stoppin the feeling to wait for the times.
Whos saying baby, that dont mean a thing,
cause nowadays clancy cant even sing.
And whos all hung-up on that happiness thing?
Whos trying to tune all the bells that he rings?
And whos in the corner and down on the floor
With pencil and paper just counting the score?
And whos trying to act like hes just in between?
The line isnt black, if you know that its green.
Dont bother looking, youre too blind to see
Whos coming on like he wanted to be.
Whos saying baby, that dont mean a thing,
cause nowadays clancy cant even sing.
And whos coming home on the old nine-to-five?
Whos got the feeling that he came alive,
Though havin it, sharin it aint quite the same
It aint no gold nugget, you cant lay a claim
Whos seeing eyes through the crack in the floor
There it is baby, dont you worry no more
Who should be sleepin, but is writing this song
Wishin and a-hopin he werent so damned wrong.
Whos saying baby, that dont mean a thing,
cause nowadays clancy cant even sing.
song performed by Neil Young
