Player Piano lyrics

Play me like a player piano
Roll me from the corners
Of your dark and dusty shadows
Like a player piano
I sit useless most of the time

The bar gets darker
It swallows up the scarlet
The barkeep’s looking thin
We sit together
Until only the piano of the player remains

Tell me why you won't keep it
Tie me up in a shoe-string box
She don't keep it, she don't need it
Get me out of the deep end
My legs are dangling over the roof

The room gets brighter
And I can see inside her
But I can’t turn the switch
She’s so together
I can do the damage and
She can manage the flames

Play me like a player piano
Play me like a player piano
Play me like a player piano
Play me, play me!
