Not that
you want to be out of curiosity
Just a corsage of the world
I was in love with a girl,
I would the violence foresee.
All that it ought to be,
blessed by generosity,
sure to put your heart in a whirl.
Stop to pick up a dollar bill,
as the blood drips at the mill.
Have you got fried chicken?
You ate it up so fast,
laid down its life just for you.
Now you have nothing to do,
just a television tube.
Though for goodness sake,
and the love you make,
skipping stones at the lake.
You've got a half -baked idea,
to think we'd be so glad to see ya.
Lost in your lonely room,
how they grow up and bloom,
young girls in the magazine,
how they took part in your doom,
babies step out of the womb,
hunger and lust for life,
she was like any housewife,
darning the socks with concern.
Glad you ever were born,
just to get up in the morn.
Though all the while
you were surrounded by amateurs,
Breathing in love so insane
Thinking your hope was reframed
And the emotional pain
Nothing to do but cry
As you dry your eyes
Watching the soap opera die
Longing for the freedom of success
When we're all just a temporary guest
Living in such a mess,
I'll bring you back again
Just like you used to have been
How could you really win?
Pledging your existence to sin
We'll delight in the twilight,
anything to make it right,
when there's nothing left but nothing,
but an empty song,
why did it have to go wrong,
how it all works out,
something about it
so thinking that love is a crime
you were a friend of mine
standing there at this time
you're gonna make it
Joe love is sure to follow
happy to be that way
tomorrow is brand -new day
what do you have to say
Thank you.
Thanks for coming out
tonight.
I really appreciate it.
Next time I come,
I promise I'll do a better show.
Thanks a lot. You
