Notes:      Jt on sony.com: the song starts in the final moments of the nixon white house with the president's farewell address. so he says goodbye . . . goodbye. next he's got to walk across the room, out   Ack door, across the lawn, past the vacant but alert (zen) marine, into the helicopter and away. he does this by lining up the white house staff and moving down the line shaking hands and saying   Le things - voila.   After some typical personal stuff the songs ends in madison square garden in 1987 with a mass wedding of the unification church; the reverend sun moon presiding via satellite video down link.      None of this may have actually happened.      I remember richard nixon back in '74   And the final scene at the white house door   And the staff lined up to say good-bye   Tiny tear in his shifty little eye   He said nobody knows me   Nobody understands   These little people were good to me   Oh I'm gonna shake some hands      Chorus:   Somebody line 'em up   Line 'em all up   Line 'em up   Line 'em all up   Line 'em up   Line 'em all up   Line 'em up   Line 'em all up      At that time my heart was all broke   I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke   And I turned away from my loving kind   Try to leave my body and live in my mind   But it's much too much emotion   To hold it in your hand   They've got waves out on the ocean   They're gonna wear away the land      - chorus -      Oh I've seen corn in kansas   And I've seen picket fences   And certain cowboy dances   I've gone lining up for shows   I've been safely placed in rows   Sure I know how it goes      Another day goes by   Little time machine   I'm breaking my brain   Over what it might mean   Just to claim the time   And to turn away   To make today today      Who waits for you   Lonely tired old toad   It's your life laid out before you   Like the broken white line down the center of the road      - chorus -      Yeah, big moon landing   People all standing up   Smiles for the loved ones   They go walking on down the aisles   Each re-engages stepping into the sun   I watch them turn like pages   One by one by one      - chorus -
