I wrote this song about Robert Palmer.  Hope you like it.

Robert Palmer Reference

I came here for a Robert Palmer Reference

To fill up the holes in my heart

I was addicted to love

And that’s a pretty bad place to start

I got caught up in the riptide

I liked when they ended it with a reprise

They told me it was like fire with you looked into his eyes

I didn’t believe until I saw it, I thought that they had lied

When I woke up I saw something

Out of the corner of my eye

And I started to cry, turned out it was that guy

I saw that he had something in his hand

It seemed a little out of place

A scroll that rolled up into

 a little tiny briefcase

A tattoo on his thigh

Said he was here to save the human race

Some kind of king

He seemed pretty mythical

Some kind of lord

He was anything but typical

That thing in that briefcase

Was simply irresistible

He had blood on his shirt

Told me he’d seen some things

Ate the flesh of captains, of horses, just like in Chapter 19

Spent some time with those girls with the straight black hair

Patrick Nagel looks, chin set with a carpenter’s square

One of his friends, who looked like he had wings

Was standing in the sun

Was staring at the sea

 I heard them call him ‘Elohim’

I didn’t think they were talking to me

Then the star did something I’d never seen before

Right after they called him ‘Jehovah’

It went full bore, it went hardcore

It went Heavy Nova

The last thing I asked Him

Was to tell me I’m not Dreaming

He just opened his mouth

And out came a sword

Said ‘Read chapter 27 of that book written by

Those priests for those jurisprudence guys

I’m really into redeeming’

I came here for a Robert Palmer Reference

To fill up the holes in my heart

I came here for a good time

And you’re tearing me apart

I came here for a good time

And you’re tearing me apart
