But he’s just a slave to Barangrill
The guy at the gas-pumps, he’s got a lot of soul
He sings Merry Christmas for you just like Nat King Cole
And he makes up his own tune right on the spot
About white-walls and windshields and this job he’s got
And you want to get moving, and you want to stay still
But lost in the moment, some longing gets filled
