When you think that you lost everything; You find out you can always lose a little more
The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war
Oh the fishes will laugh; As they swim out of the path; And the seagulls they'll be smiling.
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings, And I've never been too impressed.
Leaving men wholly, totally free; To do anything they wish to do but die
Oh it's rush hour now; On the wheel and the plow; And the sun is going down; Upon the sacred cow.
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim,; That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him
Here is your throat back; Thanks for the loan
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
At dawn my lover comes to me; And tells me of her dreams; With no attempts to shovel the glimpse; Into the ditch of what each one means
Sooner or later, one of us must know; That I really did try to get close to you
Has the record been breaking,; Did the needle just skip
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
Our conversation was short and sweet; It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
She's got everything she needs,; She's an artist, she don't look back
I need a dump truck mama to unload my head
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke
The birds are flyin' low babe, honey I feel so exposed
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
You don't need a weather man; To know which way the wind blows
You're the one I've been looking for,; You're the one that's got the key.; But I can't figure out whether I'm too good for you; Or you're too good for me.
When there is no more,; You cut to the core; Quicker than anyone I knew.
Done so many evil things in the name of love, it's a crying shame; I never did see no fire that could put out a flame.
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
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."
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,; Should I leave them by your gate,; Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
The world of illusion is at my door
You lose yourself, you reappear
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
Darkness at the break of noon
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,; But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
she's true, like ice, like fire
goodbye's too good a word, gal; so I'll just say fare thee well
Time is all I have to give
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
