If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
Oh, some of us'll end up;
In St. Cloud Prison,;
And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
We pointed out the way to go;
And scratched your name in sand,;
Though you just thought it was nothing more;
Than a place for you to stand.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,;
For the child that cries;
When innocence dies.
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.;
He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.
But it's like I'm stuck inside a painting;
That's hanging in the Louvre
Somethin' there is about you that I can't quite put my finger on.
I got nothing left to burn
There was music in the cafes at night;
And revolution in the air.
We're idiots, babe.;
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
I don't want to fake you out
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,;
He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
Can't you make any sound?
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
They tell me everything is gonna be all right;
But I don't know what "all right" even means
Those are the hill of heaven, my love;
You and I'll never know
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances;
My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
If the bible is right, the world will explode
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.
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,;
To see that you're madly in love.
But I will be back, I will survive,;
You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
Last night I danced with a stranger;
But she just reminded me you were the one
I've paid the price of solitude, but at last I'm out of debt.
