Lyrics from a blackout poem from "The Story of Blixie Bimber and the Power of the Gold Buckskin Wincher" in “Rootabaga Stories” by Carl Sandburg (1922)

lyrics

Sing a love song. Sing it loud, just how I like it
in the morning, on and on. Under the window,
I will stand, and I will play with a power I can't control.

In the morning, time’s at work, time is working.
In the evening, time's at play, time is playing with my mind
when I fall and hang around for scrapped attention.

At the party, hanging round for better connection.
At the party, falling down... It’s better than staying at home
with the power and nothing I can't control.

In the morning I wake up,
feeling the ache of missing something I never had enough of.
In the evening, in my bed, trying to rest without affection I won’t ever get.

And time is moving, time’s at play,
and everyone's getting a little older every day.
So, sing a love song, sing it loud, just how I like it:
on and on and on and on and on.
