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
The night is pitch black, come an' make my; Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells; I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
You will search, babe, At any cost.; But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
When he died I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
Every brain is civilized,; Every nerve is analyzed,; Everything is criticized when you are in need.
It's mighty funny; the end of time has just begun
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
I'm going out of my mind; With a pain that stops and starts
It was then that I got up to leave; But she said, "Don't forget,; Everybody must give something back; For something they get."
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
I still got my voice left, I can take it anywhere I go
When you know as well as me; You'd rather see me paralyzed
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face; And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
All the laughter is just making me sad
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
I'm in a cowboy band
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
You don't need a weather man; To know which way the wind blows
She got a weird sense of humor that's all her own
Was that the thunder that I heard?; My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,; See what you can do.; I can make it through,; You can make it too.
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense; I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag; Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag; Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
Some things are too hot to touch; The human mind can only stand so much
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand; In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Oh, the only decent thing I did when I worked as a postal clerk; Was to haul your picture down off the wall near the cage where I used to work.; Was I a fool or not to try to protect your identity?; You looked a little burned out, my friend,; I thought it might be up to me.
And, when I was through; I filled up my shoe; And brought it to you.
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
I must be guilty of something,; You just whisper it into my ear.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
Always on the outside of whatever side there was,; When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just because."
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
How does it feel
I can't help it if I'm lucky.
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
