lyrics

I could be like Orson Welles,
Maybe peak at 25.
I could be like Jacques Cousteau
If I weren't afraid to dive.
Being under water.
Coming up for air.

The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.

I could be like John McCrae,
Maybe watch those poppies blow.
I could be like Gustav Holst;
Planets might be all you know.
In The Bleak Midwinter.
Band Suites one and two.
I could be a printer
Making nothing new.

The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.

I could be like Groucho Marx,
Maybe if I liked cigars.
I could be like Langston Hughes,
Harlem isn't very far.
Listening to Street Scene.
Singing Lonely House.
I could write out my dreams,
Or make a deal like Faust.

The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.

The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.
The best is yet to come.

I could be like Isaac Page,
Maybe that's the way to go.

Finally off the clean-cut & dull BNL leash, this might go somewhere. More on the album than on this retro-styled single, but it's fun nonetheless. Marco Flammang
