Straight out of mothballs we took the jet And flew across Gotham in retroglide The closest thing to heaven that I found yet In a city full of dreamers it's as good as it gets Go tell the spider to text the X This comic book caper is nine to five A seven or eleven and it's a bet In a city full of schemers it's as good as it gets Me, I'm an eight ball shoot me and win There's not a lot love in this city of sin Do you ever get the feeling this sun has set In a city full of screamers it's as good as it gets Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy Repeat Moby or Gobi a deserted dream You hear a lot of ghosts in this old town Gotta let the fuse blow you right out the net In a city full of stealers it's as good as it gets Saigon ain't bygones for viet vets You don't know what hits you til they call in the debt The apocalypse is now and it's still Jack Schitt In a city full of dealers it's as good as it gets Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy
