The Lobby Lyrics

so I go down to the lobby
and everybody stares
they say take off that foolish hat
what man? I say

so I go down to the lobby
and everybody stares
they say take off that foolish hat
put down that chair

so I go down to the lobby
and everyone's still there
and they say the snow is getting deeper
don't go out there
you can't leave him like that
go back upstairs

so I run down the fire-escape
I leap into the air
and I say - I thought I'd like to fly
I needed air

so I run down the main street


I knock some people down
and they say... I know their lips are moving
I hear no sound
five geese flew down beside me


I ran along
I don't know what you're saying
I'm not unfair
so I go down to the lobby
and everyone's still there
and they say take off that foolish hat
put down that chair
and they say this is your darkest hour
this is my finest moment
you can't leave him like that
he'll be okay.

so I go down to the lobby

I know it...
I know it...

Jane Siberry (born October 12, 1955 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is most famous for her early 1980s new wave hits such as 'Mimi on the Beach', 'I Muse Aloud' and 'One More Colour'. Internationally, she is best known for her 1993 album 'When I Was a Boy'. Her first self-titled album was released in 1981.

Following the commercial failure of her 1995 album Maria , Siberry founded her own independent label, Sheeba Records. She has released all of her subsequent material on that label. Her public profile has been lower since she became an independent artist; however, she retains a devoted cult following.

Early in 2006, she closed her Sheeba office, then sold and gave away nearly all of her possessions -- including her home and instruments. She presently retains one travelling guitar, but none of the other instruments featured on her albums and in her concerts.

On June 3, 2006, somewhere in northwestern Europe, Siberry changed her name to Issa. She revealed her new name to the public on June 24, 2006. She has also indicated, however, that her older music will remain available for sale under the name Jane Siberry; only her new material will be released as Issa. Read more on Last.fm.
