[00:09.70]All through the summers, into January
[00:13.40]I've been visiting morgues and monasteries
[00:18.20]Looking for the necessary body parts
[00:22.30]Limbs and livers and brains and hearts
[00:25.70]I'll bring someone to life, is what I wanna do
[00:30.10]I wanna create my own version of you
[00:35.40]
[00:37.50]Well, it must be the winter of my discontent
[00:41.40]
[00:42.20]I wish you'd've taken me with you wherever you went
[00:46.30]They talk all night and they talk all day
[00:50.30]
[00:50.80]Not for a minute do I believe anything they say
[00:54.30]I'm gon' bring someone to life, someone I've never seen
[00:58.70]
[00:59.10]You know what I mean, you know exactly what I mean
[01:03.20]
[01:06.40]I'll take the Scarface Pacino and The Godfather Brando
[01:10.20]Mix it up in a tank and get a robot commando
[01:15.10]If I do it upright and put the head on straight
[01:19.00]I'll be saved by the creature that I create
[01:22.50]I'll get blood from a cactus, gunpowder from ice
[01:27.50]I don't gamble with cards and I don't shoot no dice
[01:31.80]Can you look at my face with your sightless eyes?
[01:36.20]Can you cross your heart and hope to die?
[01:40.20]
[01:40.80]I'll bring someone to life, someone for real
[01:44.50]Someone who feels the way that I feel
[01:48.40]
[01:55.60]I study Sanskrit and Arabic to improve my mind
[01:59.70]I wanna do things for the benefit of all mankind
[02:04.50]I say to the willow tree, "Don't weep for me"
[02:08.50]I'm saying to hell to all things that I used to be
[02:12.60]Well, I get into trouble, then I hit the wall
[02:16.40]No place to turn, no place at all
[02:20.90]I'll pick a number between a-one and two
[02:25.30]And I ask myself, "What would Julius Caesar do?"
[02:29.40]I will bring someone to life in more ways than one
[02:33.70]Don't matter how long it takes, it'll be done when it's done
[02:39.70]
[02:44.50]I'm gonna make you play the piano like Leon Russell
[02:49.90]Like Liberace, like St. John the Apostle
[02:53.90]I'll play every number that I can play
[02:58.20]I'll see you maybe on Judgment Day
[03:02.80]After midnight, if you still wanna meet
[03:05.70]I'll be at the Black Horse Tavern on Armageddon Street
[03:10.80]Two doors down, not that far a walk
[03:15.00]I'll hear your footsteps, you won't have to knock
[03:19.20]I'll bring someone to life, balance the scales
[03:23.10]I'm not gonna get involved any insignificant details
[03:28.30]
[03:34.20]You can bring it to St. Peter
[03:36.50]You can bring it to Jerome
[03:39.00]You can bring it all the way over
[03:41.20]Bring it all the way home
[03:43.20]Bring it to the corner where the children play
[03:46.90]You can bring it to me on a silver tray
[03:51.40]I'll bring someone to life, spare no expense
[03:55.60]Do it with decency and common sense
[04:00.60]
[04:15.80]Can you tell me what it means, to be or not to be?
[04:20.20]You won't get away with fooling me
[04:24.20]Can you help me walk that moonlight mile?
[04:28.40]Can you give me the blessings of your smile?
[04:32.50]I'll bring someone to life, use all of my powers
[04:36.80]Do it in ...........
