Magic Payday Lyrics

Once, twice, it might be nice

Look me in the eye and smile this time

Brother can you spare a dime?

Pavement's getting hot

Thought I heard a gunshot

Astray on the street, conjuring my muse

Desire swelling for a magic pay day

Karate kick here, asana there

Puffs of pungent weed waft through the air

Under a blue sky all is cool

But on the edge of a swoon

I thought I felt tomorrow loom

Astray on the street, conjuring my muse

Desire swelling for a magic pay day

Betting on the future, betting on myself

Insomnia snatches my well-being and health

Destiny's a vision I hold on to steadfast

Destiny's a vision, is it within my grasp?

Cross-legged beneath a maple tree

I sing and strum my way to liberty

Shielded from the tick-tock of the clock

For now the breeze is fine

And you and I will sneer at time

Astray on the street, conjuring my muse

Desire swelling for a magic pay day
