Artist/Band: Josh Joplin Group
Lyrics for Song: Mortimer's Ghost
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Josh Joplin Group



Mortimer's ghost

Graduates today

First in his class

And well on his way

The dry cleaning king of Baltimore's only kid

Thinks back on all the things he almost did



"I coulda wrecked the car

I could've broke the law

I could've fell love

With every girl I saw

But I didn't, and I missed my chance to fail

And if I tried right now, well, I'd probably go to jail"



Singin'

La la la la la la la

Look at me now

I've got it figured out



Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

Don't hang up the phone

You're not alone

You're with me, and I'm with you

And we're with friends



Mortimer's ghost

Calls me to confess

His job is a joke

His life is meaningless

"They tell you what to do and make you walk the plank

Freedom's just another word for

'You owe the bank'"



Singin'

La la la la la la la

Look at me now

I've got it figured out



Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

Don't hang up the phone

You're not alone

You're with me, and I'm with you

And we're with friends



Buckled up in shirts and ties

Waiting for the downsize

Decorate your cubicle

You can't go out, your schedule's full

Gotta get the kids at five

They're judging you by what you drive

They're judging you by what you drive

They're judging you by what you drive



Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

I've got it figured out

Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

I've got it figured out



La la la la la la la

Look at us now

La la la la la la la

Look at us now

Got it figured out



Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

I've got it figured out

Life is a long conversation

And love is a call that never ends

I've got it figured out
