Brand New Shine

I've got something special to show you But I suppose you've seen it all before There's something I'm trying to tell you But then again you've heard it all before I survived another week just like the one before When everything you wanted somehow leaves you wanting more And I looked beneath the carpet, behind each and every door Trying to find you something like you've never had before And it seems we're just beginners No previous experience at all Just the last original sinners And if you need me just be sure to call And they tell you which way not to go and so you go that way One child plays with what another throws away Like a kite without string, go anywhere, do anything I'm trying to take you someplace you've never been before [Cheering] I see something new in each and every move From your old, old hat to your blown-out shoes It's tried and true, and it's all I do And I hope it's not all the same to you The old and new, they get mistaken all the time Is that something I've never seen before? Or just a brand new shine? Now they're cranking 'em out by the millions They look and act exactly just the same And each one's one in a million And each has got its own elusive game It's the same old dusty atmosphere just like the other place I see something familiar in each and every face Seems to me I've seen you, been here, said this once before I'm trying to take you someplace you've never been before I see something new in each and every moon From your old, old hat to your blown-out shoes When I dropped it and broke it I thought of you And I hope it's not all the same to you And the old and new, they get mistaken all the time Is there something I've never seen before?
