Harum Procol Homburg Lyrics

Homburg Lyrics

Your multilingual businessfriend has packed her bags and fled
leaving only
ashfilled ashtrays and the lipsticked unmade bed
the mirrors on reflection
has climbed back upon the wall
for the floor she found descended and the
ceiling was too tall

Your trousers cuffs are dirty and your shoes are
laced up wrong
you´d better take off your homburg cause your overcoat is
too long

The town clock in the market square stands waiting for the
hour
when it´s hands they both turn backwards and on meeting
will
devour
both themselves and also any fool who dares to tell the time
and
the sun and moon will shudder and the signpost cease to sign

Your
trousers cuffs are dirty and your shoes are laced up wrong
you´d better
take off your homburg cause your overcoat is too long
your trousers cuffs
are dirty and your shoes are laced up wrong
you´d better take off your
homburg cause your overcoat is too long
ah ,your trousers cuffs are dirty
and your shoes are laced up wrong
you´d better take off your homburg
cause your overcoat is too long.....
