Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud;
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,;
I saw what I wanted to be
I'll remember you;
At the end of the trail,;
I had so much left to do,;
I had so little time to fail.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,;
All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm.
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
It's mighty funny;
the end of time has just begun
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
When you think that you lost everything;
You find out you can always lose a little more
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
My love she speaks like silence
But the enemy I see wears a cloak of decency,;
All non-believers and men stealers talkin' in the name of religion
Well, you're so bad and nasty;
But I love you, yes I do
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,;
I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory,;
And all your ragin' glory.
In the hills of mystery,;
In the foggy web of destiny,;
You can have what's left of me,;
Where we were born in time.
May you have a strong foundation;
When the winds of changes shift
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain;
Pay for your ticket and don't complain
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,;
Carefully removes his fez,;
"Am I hearin' you right?"
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.
If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Wealth is a filthy rag;
So erotic so unpatriotic;
So wrapped up in the American flag
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
