Wealth is a filthy rag;
So erotic so unpatriotic;
So wrapped up in the American flag

I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint.

Oh it's rush hour now;
On the wheel and the plow;
And the sun is going down;
Upon the sacred cow.

Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.

I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down

Heart of mine be still,;
You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill

'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.

There's no one here, the gardener is gone

the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming

Some things are too hot to touch;
The human mind can only stand so much

Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,;
Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.

I still can remember the way that you smiled

The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war

You don't need a weather man;
To know which way the wind blows

I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.

I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues

Ring them bells, for the time that flies,;
For the child that cries;
When innocence dies.

I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells;
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through

My children will go, As soon as they grow.;
Well, there ain't nothing here now to hold them.

If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?

When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?

Put my tears in a bottle Screw the top on tight

I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.

The night passed away so quickly;
It always does when you're with me.

Now you stand here expectin' me to remember somethin' you forgot to say

Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.

Won't you come with me, baby?;
I'll take you where you wanna go.;
And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know

I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind;
You could have done better but I don't mind;
You just kinda wasted my precious time

I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.

Your temperature's too hot for taming

It's many a guard;
That stands around smilin',;
Holdin' his club;
Like he was a king.

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.

Those are the hills of hell-fire my love;
Where you and I will unite

The treasure can't be found by men who search

Everybody's wearing a disguise;
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes

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.

Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood.;
He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good.

If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.

Have I surrendered to the will of God;
Or am I still acting like the boss?

My conscience is beginning to bother me today.

People are crazy and times are strange

Don't trust me to show you beauty;
When beauty may only turn to rust.

You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend

Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed

if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now

You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

The night is pitch black, come an' make my;
Pale face fit into place, ah, please!

Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave,;
"Let's go and play Adam and Eve.";
I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin';
When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin',;
You see what happened last time they started."

She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts

And then you told me later, as I apologized;
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm

I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed;
You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road

Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.;
Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.

We're idiots, babe.;
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.

Well, you're on your own, you always were,;
In a land of wolves and thieves.

They tell me everything is gonna be all right;
But I don't know what "all right" even means

Well, if I had to do it all over again,;
Babe, I'd do it all over you.

She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.

They don't want me around;
'Cause I believe in you.

Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
