 I know a spell  That would you make well
Write  about love,  it could be  in any tense,
 but it must  make sense
 I know a trick  Forget that you are sick
Write  about love,  it could be  in any form,
 Hand it to  me in the morning
 I hate  my job, I'm working way too much
 (every day I'm stuck  in an office)
 At one  o'clock, I take my lunch up on the roof  (up on the roof)
 The city's spread  below, I'll write  about a man
 He's intellectual  and he's hot,  but he understands
 The seconds move on  (if you watch the clock)
 And the sky grows dark  (if you're looking up)
But  the girls  move from thrill  to thrill
 on the tightrope walk  (on the tightrope walk)
 I hate  my job, I'm working way too much
 (every day I'm stuck  in an office)
 At one  o'clock, I take my lunch up on the roof  (up on the roof)
 The city's spread  below, I'll write  about a man
 He's intellectual  and he's hot,  but he understands
 I know a way  (so you know the way)
 Get on your skinny knees and pray  (Maybe not to-day)
 You've got  to see the dream  through the windows  and the trees
 of your living room  (of your living room)
 You've got  to see the dream  through the windows  and the trees
 of your living room
