Chamois cleaning all the windows
Singin' songs about Edith Piaf's soul
And I hear blue strains of No Regrets ('No Regretri En')
Cross the street, The Cathedral Notre Dame
Meanwhile back in San Fancisco, ooh
Tried hard to make this whole thing blend
As we sit upon this jagged rock
Story block with you my friend
And it's a long way, long way to Buffalo
It's a long way to Belfast City, tube
And I'm hoping that Joyce, don't blow the hoist
But this time they bit off more than they can chew
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
Saint Dominic's Preview
Saint Dominic's Preview
Saint Dominic's Preview
All the orange crates are scattered
At the Safeway Supermarket in the rain
Ev'rybody feels so determined
Not to feel anyone else's pain
No one makin' no commitments
Anybody but themselves
Talkin' behind closed doorways
Trying to get it and outside at the shelf

And for every
Every cross town country corner
Ev'ry Hank Williams railroad train that cried
All the chains n' badges, flags and emblems
Ev'ry strain on ev'ry brain and ev'ry eye-i-i-i
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
And we gave out on
Saint Dominic's Preview, hu!
Saint Dominic's Preview, ay-hey
Saint Dominic's Preview
Oh, the restaurant tables are completely
Covered, covered, covered, covered
And the comp'ny's paid out for the wi-yi-yi-yi-ine
Got ev'rything in the world ya ever wanted, don't cha?
Right about now your face should wear a smile
Get on up
That's the way it all should happen
In the fairytale state you're in
Well, have you got your pen and notebook ready?
Sign right here
Sign right here
Now when you get it
An' way over
On a 52nd Street apartment
Socializin' with the wino, few
Used to be hip and get wet with the jet set
But they were flyin' too high to see my
See my point of view
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
And we gaze out on
St. Dominic's Preview
Hey!
St. Dominic's Preview
Hey-hey-now!
St. Dominic's Preview
Said the freedom marches
(St. Dominic's Preview )
Freedom marches
Out in the street
(St. Dominic's Preview)
Freedom marches
Out in the street
(St. Dominic's Preview)
Turn around an' come back
Look at the man
(St. Dominic's Preview)
Hey-yeah
St. Dominic's Preview
One more time
St. Dominic's Preview.
