lyrics

In a doorway he sat
with his dog and his hat
His mental infirmity caused him
to self inflict his physical deformity

He had 53,827 dollars and 32 cents
in uncashed social disability checks
which he kept crumpled
and wadded up in his left boot
This ever growing stash
rendered him hobbled
So... in a doorway
he and the dog would sit and swoon
and for your paltry charitable contributions
He and the dog would croon

Ahhhhhhh

Fearing the rejection he faced from his failed attempt as a stand-up comic
would render him incapable of anything other than a career
as a weathercaster for the local news
he decided it would be more prudent of him to just head straight for the gutter
So... he and the dog sit... in the doorway, in the culvert, in the alley
and they wait... for your change, for the moon, for the wind, for to croon
