Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
Whatever you wanted;
Slipped out of my mind
Every day of the year's like playin' Russian roulette
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
And now the heart is filled with gold;
As if it was a purse.;
But, oh, what kind of love is this;
Which goes from bad to worse?
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,;
Carefully removes his fez,;
"Am I hearin' you right?"
When there is no more,;
You cut to the core;
Quicker than anyone I knew.
You can make me cry;
Never say goodbye
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
How can I explain?;
Oh, it's so hard to get on
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
The vagabond who's rapping at your door;
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Democracy don't rule the world,;
You'd better get that in your head.;
This world is ruled by violence;
But I guess that's better left unsaid.
Let me ask you one question;
Is your money that good
The way is long but the end is near, Already the fiesta has begun
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,;
To see that you're madly in love.
Won't you come with me, baby?;
I'll take you where you wanna go.;
And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
They say ev'rything can be replaced
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
If there's a poor boy on the street,;
Then let him have my seat;
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love;
Where you and I will unite
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind;
You could have done better but I don't mind;
You just kinda wasted my precious time
What was it you wanted;
When you were kissing my check?
Well, I try my best;
To be just like I am,;
But everybody wants you;
To be just like them.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun;
I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
Does she know I still care?
Don't trust me to show you love;
When my love may be only lust.
