Turn your back, wash your hands,;
There's always someone who understands
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,;
All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Don't trust me to show you beauty;
When beauty may only turn to rust.
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
I'll remember you;
When the wind blows through the piney wood.
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.
Yes, I know now, traps are only set by me;
And I do not really need to be;
Assured that love is just a four-letter word
I want to thank You, Lord,;
I just want to thank You, Lord,;
Thank You, Lord.
There was music in the cafes at night;
And revolution in the air.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Well, you're on your own, you always were,;
In a land of wolves and thieves.
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past;
I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,;
He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
Seen the arrow on the doorpost;
Saying, "This land is condemned;
All the way from New Orleans;
To Jerusalem."
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
All the people we used to know;
Are an illusion to me now
You know, the streets are filled with vipers;
Who've lost all ray of hope,;
You know, it ain't even safe no more;
In the palace of the Pope.
Let me ask you one question;
Is your money that good
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry,;
What good am I?
She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
time is running backwards
There's some people that;
You don't forget,;
Even though you've only seen'm;
One time or two.
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
