I used to play the trumpet once but now I play guitar
Somebody told you it`s more mellow.
Well I`ve played a lot of music since but I really haven`t grown that far
Somebody said that you`re just yellow.

So I keep it up on the shelf
And it`s funny how you keep it all to yourself
Hey honey, could there ever be,
Should there ever be,
Could there ever be something else?

You know I used to swing my silver sword, the dragons hit the ground
Whatever happened to the maidens?
Well I`d swing my silver sword again and they would all fall down
Would you leave them lying there where you had laid them?

And I used to have a country once, where it`s gone I do not know.
Where do you think you might have lost it?
I used to raise the flag at dawn, but that was very long ago
Maybe you can find it where you tossed it.

Well I tossed it up on the shelf
And it`s funny how you`ve kept it all for yourself
Hey honey, could there ever be,
Should there ever be,
Could there ever be something else?

I used to say my prayers boys, I used to sing the hymns
Even the echo`s disappearing.
They`ve broken the stained windows, the cathedral`s getting dim.
Then what is this dirge that we are hearing?

Well it comes from up on the shelf
And it`s funny how you sing it only for yourself
Hey honey, could there ever be,
Should there ever be,
Could there ever be something else?

Well, I used to have a lover once, I used to have a friend
How in the hell you ever find one?
My song is almost over now, my story`s at an end
You lived yourself a good life but a blind one.

Well I`ve hidden there up on the shelf
And it`s funny how you`ve kept it al
