Player Piano - Seven Mary Three

Play me like a player piano

Roll me from the corners

Of your dark and dusty shadows

Like a player piano,

I sit useless

Most of the time

The bar gets darker

It swallows up the scarlet

The barkeep’s looking thin

We sit together

Until only the piano

Of the player remains

Tell me why you won’t keep it Tie me up in a shoe-string box

She don’t keep it if She don’t need it Get me out of the deep end

My legs are dangling over the roof

The room gets brighter

When I can see inside her

When I can turn the switch

But she’s so together

I can do the damage and

She can manage the flames
