Safe and Sound

(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman) Strange times in Portland, Maine Lobsters dancing on the dock Switzerland's been wierd since they unplugged the clocks Man and a woman living in Brooklyn Heights Each convinced that the other is in the wrong Last year the divorce rate trippled in Hong Kong If through all the madness We can stick together We're safe and sound The world's just insode out and upside down Flash from Mexico... the TOREADORS have all turned gay Roman whores have quit to seek a better way Dope has undermined the morale of the Buckingham Palace guards Motorcycle gangs ride naked down Hollywood Boulevard If through all the madness We can stick together We're safe and sound The whole world's just turned insode out and upside down Marahaj wants you to lead a pilgrimage to Tibet New York women want me sounding off like a Suffragette I know that each of us is alone in the end But the trip still feels less dangerous when you've got a friend If we stick together You and me forever We're safe and sound The world's just turned inside out and upside down The world's just turned insode out and upside down
