Jonathan Segel - Say Goodnight Lyrics

Smoke cigars and taste
The blessing of the artichoke
You'll savor the flavor until
You're devoured by the smoke
And it all seems right, just say goodnight

We'll drink wine till the dawn
And pass this way into the dark
We play our characters until
One player shows their true mark
We'll pretend it's alright, just say good night

Miss Mary of the plain, your slave I remain, though I must complain
I believe you are insane
Mr. Joe with the joke, how do you do, I must be true
I never trusted you
Mr. Jack of the trade, you know I must be frank, I think you stank
Your type of ""honesty"" never appealed to me

How's about a nice filthy dance
Something to put us in a trance
So we'll forget our lives
And we'll move on past the knives
And gracefully say goodnight
