Song information
I loved Marlon Brando's portrayal of Sky Masterson in the film Guys and Dolls. Such an intriguing character...thought I'd expand on him a bit. Thanks to the Joyce and the Social-Lites for adding so much to it.

Lyrics
Brother Sky

By Peter Kern

Intro:
The walk, the talk, the style
Lavish swank fine rich cologne
The swagger of a dagger
Shiny carbon steel well honed
Graceful as a dancer
On a tightrope over the night
Regal yet illegal 
More than muscle
Suave and bright

Charm in constant flow, gliding slick between the lines
Detested but revered, charismatically designed
Debonair, eccentric, your place or mine is fine
Hard bets sustains the gambler, Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky

Respectful of his women, indifferent to their bliss
Would take it on the chin and grin, then drop them from his list
Nothing like a girl in love so lustful and amiss
The please is so implied Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky


Biblically bombastic preaches gospel of the street
Rhythmic recitations of the daily racing sheet
Two for dinner in Havana and he didn't have to cheat
Lovelies taken turns to blow his dice about to fly
Cider in your eye Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky


A marker from a gambler is as sacred as it gets
Delusions of their grandeur bring them face to face with death
Then luck becomes a lady zips around the fly
Table for a tumble Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky Brother Sky

Luck be a lady indeed. This has such a cool vibe to it, and all the vocals are, as expected, heavenly.
