Icehouse - West Eleven Genius Songtext


WEST ELEVEN GENIUS (I. Davies)
------------------------------

not a moment to spare for the West Eleven genius
the whole world will soon know, he’s been working on his masterpiece
cocktails at 8.00 with the celebrity crowd
dressed to impress (but not excessively loud)
and it’s all in the working day of a West Eleven genius

such a gifted young man, is a West Eleven genius
he should write it all down, but that’s a little too ‘obvious’
he’s short of substance, but his style ... that’s the thing
& so many parties, but there’s so little time
& it’s all in the working day of a West Eleven genius
yes, it’s all in the working day of a West Eleven genius

strange & eccentric, in his charming way
seen in the very best of company
stars in his own cinéma vérité
so eloquent that he has nothing to say

in the daily routine of the West Eleven genius
is there poetry & song, or maybe vast unfinished canvases?
no, he’s making a movie of his life underground
back in the bedroom with a very close friend
& it’s all in the working day of a West Eleven genius
