about

Inspired by the Stan and Ollie film - about how Stan Laurel kept writing scripts for his friend long after Ollie had passed away.

lyrics

O you know it Babe
The pencil keeps on moving to the page
I know what you’re going to say
To the empty seats from the empty stage
When the page is full
Everything is beautiful
Music fills the air
Like a piano falling down the stairs

I can hear you I can hear you
Though everybody says you’ve gone away
I can hear you I can hear you
I’m getting nearer to you every day

It can’t be civilised or cured
It will discover all your unattended doors
The moment that I feel free and pure
It grabs me like a lover and devours like a dinosaur
When the page is full
Everything is beautiful
Music fills the air
Like a piano falling down the stairs

I can hear you I can hear you
Though everybody says you’ve gone away
I can hear you I can hear you
I’m getting nearer to you every day

We have to try because soon we’ll all
Have nothing left in our pen
If you cry at my funeral
I’ll never speak to you again

Babe, when it goes away
I go fishing and I use myself as bait
The trouble is that when you are the prey
You don’t get to choose who puts you on their plate
When the page is full
Everything is beautiful
Music fills the air
Like a piano falling down the stairs

I can hear you I can hear you
Though everybody says you’ve gone away
I can hear you I can hear you
I’m getting nearer to you every day
