Timmy

by Martin Gallop (Martin Gallop)

Timmy go to sleep in a shopping mall

totally oblivious to it all

dreams of gold records on his wall

Timmy go to sleep in a shopping mall

 

Timmy go to sleep in a studio

cuddled up close to the piano

someday everybody's gonna know

Timmy went to sleep in a studio

 

Timmy waking up to a big bass drum

has a cup of coffee, knocks off another one

banging out the hits till the day is done

Timmy waking up to a big bass drum

 

Nobody knows his business

like Timmy knows show business

nobody knows the highs and lows

a guy like Timmy goes through

 

Timmy's in a field by a big freeway

fifty five miles shy of LA

the sun's coming up it's a beautiful day

Timmy's in a field by a big freeway

 

Timmy's flying high in a private jet

with some fine young ladies he just met

even though he hasn't taken off yet

Timmy's flying high in a private jet

 

Fly fly fly so high

off into a beautiful rainbow sky

and fire up the big star maker machine

with all those beautiful rainbow dreams

 

Timmy go to sleep in a shopping mall

totally oblivious to it all

tyrants rise and kingdoms fall

Timmy go to sleep in a shopping mall
