lyrics

Galileo’s Trio (by Mark Gostnell)
This is a more typical tale of barroom romance, penned by my dear friend and fellow denizen of Williams, Mark Gostnell.

Meterorites and falling stars
Falling angels and honky tonk bars
Milky Way spilled over the velvet sky

Flying saucers prowling for love
That’s why they come down from up above
Like silver teardrops falling from god’s eye

Waltz with me, put your cheek next to mine
I don’t want any beer, I never drink wine
But if you want to come around to my side of town
I may never ask you again
We’ll have a sip of Irish whiskey and a toke of mary jane

Planets, moons, and galaxies
Out as far as the eye can see
Comets glide elliptically with such grace
The ballroom floor is strewn with stars
We’ll dance by Jupiter then by mars
In the morning I’ll kiss your pretty face

Waltz with me, please take my hand, Galileo’s trio is the name of the band
If you want to come around to my side of town
I’ll gladly show you the way,
We’ll have a sip of Irish whiskey and a toke of Mary Jane.
