Another Kind Of Music
Harmony Struggle: A Musician's Dual Allegiance
Lyrics
He shakes his head and sings the blues
Expressing disapproval or disappointment, shaking head, singing blues.
And everybody loves him
Enjoying widespread popularity and admiration.
It's not the way he wants to play
Not satisfied with the current musical style or approach.
He does it for the living
Pursuing music as a means of livelihood.
He's chased by girls for autographs
Being pursued by fans for autographs.
He smiles and signs so gladly
Smiling and willingly signing autographs for fans.
But when he finally reaches home
Returning home with a sense of sadness.
He climbs the stairs so sadly
Feeling a sense of melancholy while climbing stairs at home.
'Cause he wants to play another way
Desiring to explore a different style of music.
Another kind of music
Expressing the desire for another genre of music.
Although he enjoys his pop success
Acknowledging enjoyment of pop success but yearning for something else.
He's in love with classical music
Being deeply in love with classical music.
He's always in the public's eye
Constantly under public scrutiny and attention.
His pictures fill the papers
Images featured prominently in newspapers.
But no one knows just how he feels
Hidden emotions and experiences behind the public facade.
As he cuts his chronical capers
Engaging in unconventional and unpredictable actions.
His records sell extremely well
Commercial success in selling records, but questioning personal desires.
But does he really want it
Uncertain if success aligns with personal aspirations.
He plays the clubs and one night stands
Performing at smaller venues, longing for grand concerts.
But longs to play a concert
Desiring to showcase talent in a more prestigious setting.
'Cause he wants to play another way
Reiterating the desire for a different musical path.
Another kind of music
Expressing the need for another genre of music.
Although he enjoys his pop success
Acknowledging enjoyment of pop success but yearning for something else (repeated).
He's in love with classical music
Being deeply in love with classical music (repeated).
He plays the clubs and one night stands
Performing at smaller venues, longing for grand concerts (repeated).
But longs to play a concert
Desiring to showcase talent in a more prestigious setting (repeated).
'Cause he wants to play another way
Reiterating the desire for a different musical path (repeated).
Another kind of music
Expressing the need for another genre of music (repeated).
Although he enjoys his pop success
Acknowledging enjoyment of pop success but yearning for something else (repeated).
He's in love with classical music
Being deeply in love with classical music (repeated).
