lirik lagu julian velard - mark from the park
[joe schiappa & julian velard & both]
they call me mark
mark from the park
they only know me as a dad
but before my kid i had
a certain spark
i wrote 5 shows
that no one knows
a one~man musical of jaws
that overcame the movie’s flaws
i played the shark
when will the world stop being mean to us
and recognize our g~nius
i’ve been patient, lemme tell ya
i can’t believe my face isn’t on a stamp
i spent two decades suffering for my art
i put my heart on every page
and watch it die up on the stage
the audience is always in the dark
i’m always mark from the park
they call me nuts
think i’m a putz
all the moms make fun of me
’cause i keep my mornings free
i hate their guts
i hate their guts
ugh, awful
i’m choosing words
and feeding birds
while my son just runs around
i keep him here at the playground
until it shuts
we should be winning grammy and tony awards
instead of running for school boards
they made me treasurer, can you believe it?
they tried to make me vaccinate my kid
i’m nearly middle aged with no success
i’m gonna die in 20 years
and then i’ll be praised by my peers
make me a martyr just like joan of arc
instead of mark from the park
they call him mark
they call me lots of things, the children give me names
mark from the park
they won’t let me or my son play their stupid games
they know only him as a dad
but before his kid he had
a certain spark
i was the toast of off~off~off~broadway
he wrote 5 shows
you shoulda seen the amount of paper that it took
that no one knows
n0body cares about the guy who wrote the book
a one~man musical of jaws
that overcame the movie’s flaws
he played the shark
we came in second place, two silver schmucks
when you don’t come first, second sucks
we’ll never get the gold
so far away from hot, we’re freezing cold
i’m sure the world is full of guys like us
we’re never gonna win the fight
it doesn’t matter what we write
i know each time i start a song
i’ll get the ending wrong
and the bite of it is meaner than the bark
like the shark
i give up
call me mark from the park
