I'm the great man's chambermaid I've seen where his hallowed head is laid I revere the places he has stayed And clean crumbs from his typewriter He is good to me There's nothing he doesn't see He knows where I'd like to be But it doesn't matter Mhmm On my day off I haunt the docks Keep to myself, I go for walks I just make sure that lock still locks As my ship is coming in My mind and hands, they are my trade I finger sentences he's made I follow every curving of his brain Mhmm You want to know—did I ever steal? He never leaves anything out that's real I took nothing he would miss But only once I stole a kiss I used to pretend that I was Queen Letras de cancionesBut over time I quit that scene Costs too much to even dream in that direction I think of comfort and of peace I long for pleasure and release How I wish the din would cease I could do with some protection Mhmm You want to know—did I ever steal? He never leaves anything out that's real I took nothing he would miss But only once I stole a kiss I'm the great man's chambermaid I've seen where his hallowed head is laid I revere the places he has played I clean crumbs from his typewriter He often gives me sage advice When I dream of him at night He slips his pen into my hand And says, "Don't forget to write."
