Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
Now the moon is almost hidden;
The stars are beginning to hide;
The fortunetelling lady;
Has even taken all her things inside
Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?;
Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
I couldn't see where we were goin';
But you said you knew an' I took your word
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,;
That we could sit simply in that room again.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
I like the cool way you look at me,;
Everything about you is bringing me;
Misery.
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.;
One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
Give ya delusions of grandeur;
And a evil eye;
Give you idea that;
You're too good to die
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
You lose yourself, you reappear
I can't provide for you no easy answers,;
Who are you that I should have to lie?
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
I need a dump truck mama to unload my head
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
No time to suffer or blink;
And no time to think
Yesterday everything was going too fast;
Today, it's moving too slow
Heart of mine be still,;
You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
