Domino
Van Morrison · Other Songs - Van Morrison
I think it's time for a change
You may get disgusted
And start thinkin' that I'm actin' strange
In that case I'll go underground
Get some heavy rest
Never have to worry
About what is worst and what is best . . . hit it
Chorus:
Oh, oh, Domino
Roll me over, Romeo, there you go
Lord have mercy, I said
Oh, oh, Domino
Roll me over, Romeo, there you go
Say it again
I said oh, oh, Domino
I said oh, oh, Domino
There's no need for argument
There's no argument at all
And if you never hear from him
That just means he didn't call
Or vice-a-versa
That depends on where ever you're at
And if you never hear from me
That just means I would rather not . . . hit it
(Chorus)
Hey mister DJ
I just wanna hear some rhythm & blues right now
On the radio, on the radio, on, on the radio
On, on the radio, On, on the radio
On, on the radio . . . here's the band
Domino

The track captures the artist's signature blend of poetic observation and melodic warmth, reflecting the introspective qualities that have defined his extensive discography.

It serves as a reminder of Morrison's consistent capacity to evoke deep feeling through understated musicality, connecting with listeners through its universal themes of love and connection without relying on grandiose production. The recording remains a cherished element of his broader body of work, showcasing the timeless appeal of his songwriting.
