Scott Walker
Joe

As old Joe sat a dyin'
The baby down the hall was cryin'
Somebody had a party goin' on
The fat boy you told tales to
Moved away the other day
To think with no goodbye
He could have gone
A postcard from Sun City
Was found layin' by your side
A kind of desert place
Where old folks dry away
You gazed out through the window
At the wonders of the sky
As if it were the first time every day
Chorus:
There ain't no-one left alive to call me Joe
You used to say
No-one left alive
To call me Joe.
You've been beyond the boundaries
Understood it all
And thought of nothing
The ultimate was simple to your eyes
Just watch the world make madness
As the youth cried their replies
An old man knows far better than to try.
They say towards the end
You hardly left your shabby room
Where once you loved to go
*Walkin'
Thru' the day
Sit back and watch a spider
Weave your window
'Cross the moon
And meals on wheels
Laughed kindly
When you'd say
There ain't no-one left alive to call me Joe
To call me Joe
No-one left alive to call me Joe.


Mirror lyrics:

No-one left alive to call me Joe.
To call me Joe
There ain't no-one left alive to call me Joe
When you'd say
Laughed kindly
And meals on wheels
'Cross the moon
Weave your window
Sit back and watch a spider
Thru' the day
*Walkin'
Where once you loved to go
You hardly left your shabby room
They say towards the end
An old man knows far better than to try.
As the youth cried their replies
Just watch the world make madness
The ultimate was simple to your eyes
And thought of nothing
Understood it all
You've been beyond the boundaries
To call me Joe.
No-one left alive
You used to say
There ain't no-one left alive to call me Joe
Chorus:
As if it were the first time every day
At the wonders of the sky
You gazed out through the window
Where old folks dry away
A kind of desert place
Was found layin' by your side
A postcard from Sun City
He could have gone
To think with no goodbye
Moved away the other day
The fat boy you told tales to
Somebody had a party goin' on
The baby down the hall was cryin'
As old Joe sat a dyin'
