a wallpaper pulls his punch, talks to judy in a crowded corner
D2 C F
he don't read page to page or say the words in order

judy's illustrating and she's a stranger to the straight face
D2 C F
always seems so far away, staring out into space

"i'm sorry, tried to stay away" says punch, "later account, though"

judy used to hold me like a pencil writing out some change
D2 C F
her cheap philosopher was spare change for brains
