I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
I don't want to fake you out
I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
You think you can hide but you're never alone,;
Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
Are you still my friend, baby, show me a sign
You can pound on the President's gate;
But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
It's too hot to sleep time is running away
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,;
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.;
You can't walk the streets in a war
All the people we used to know;
Are an illusion to me now
Give ya delusions of grandeur;
And a evil eye;
Give you idea that;
You're too good to die
Satan whispers to ya, "Well, I don't want to bore ya,;
But when ya get tired of the Miss So-and-so I got another woman for ya."
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink;
Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
Well, you're so bad and nasty;
But I love you, yes I do
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
