Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,;
Carefully removes his fez,;
"Am I hearin' you right?"
Oh, some of us'll end up;
In St. Cloud Prison,;
And some of us'll wind up, To be lawyers and things
And the words that are used;
For to get the ship confused;
Will not be understood as they're spoken.
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.
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,;
I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.;
Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor;
And relive my dreams
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed;
Dignity never been photographed
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud;
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed;
You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
My children will go, As soon as they grow.;
Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Have you got some unfinished business?;
Is there something holding you back?;
Are you thinking for yourself;
Or are you following the pack?
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.
She's got everything she needs,;
She's an artist, she don't look back
That's how it is when things disintegrate
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to;
Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else
Where black is the color, where none is the number
Too many thoughts get in the way in the day
This wheel shall explode!
She said, "Be easy, baby,;
There ain't nothin' worth stealin' in here."
Those are the hills of hell-fire my love;
Where you and I will unite
