Algernon Lyrics

How is the view there, through your rose tinted telescope
X marks the spot dear, to a treasure chest of fools gold
The emperor's new clothes come from a closet full of old bones
You knew the truth, no surprise to me baby, no surprise to me

Your head's been floating in the clouds, too long
Algernon's gone, he left a long time ago
You still sit there by to pick up the phone
I'm singing Algernon's gone, Algernon's gone
It can't be easy being all on your own

You get it alone, it's alone, it's alone, it's alone
Don't lie to yourself anymore
Algernon's gone, he left a long time a go
Algernon is not coming home

Don't be so blue girl, Californa made your toes curl
You know those blues well, you seel the kiss then I'll tell
Back on the start line, you getting looser then the grapevine
Dig deep and smile dear, no surprise to me baby, no surprise to me

Your head's been floating in the clouds, too long
Algernon's gone, he left a long time ago
You still sit there by to pick up the phone
I'm singing Algernon's gone, Algernon's gone
It can't be easy being all on your own

You get it alone, it's alone, it's alone, it's alone
Don't lie to yourself anymore
Algernon's gone, he left a long time a go
Algernon is not coming home
