A perfect day to get out of bed
shower, dress, shave, kiss you on the head Then I hit the office and my head starts to swim A perfect day to just walk around see a violent movie, check the sounds But even on the street when I hear a phone ring my heart starts to beat when I get home I don't want you to speak Don't talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work I'm up to my eyeballs in dirt with work, with work How many dollars, how many sales how many liars, how many tales How many insults must you take in this one life I'm in prison most of the day so please excuse me, if I get this way But I have got obligations to keep so be very careful when you speak Don't talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work I'm up to my eyeballs in dirt with work, with work Please don't talk to me about work don't you talk to me about work I'm up to my eyeballs in dirt with work, with work Don't talk to me about work don't you talk to me about work Don't you talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work Don't you talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work Don't you talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work Don't you talk to me about work please don't talk to me about work ... |

Lover, lover, why is there light
in the itchy gitchy evening and it's dark outside And what's the difference between wrong and right wrong and right Isn't it funny how pain goes away and then comes back another day The air feels very good today good today Lover, lover, why is there light did you forget to turn off that light Well that's all right but it's way too bright way too bright See the eagle above the hill the lake reflects and is so still The tension has gone from my will from my will Moon on the mountain shining bright first there is dark and then there is light And sometimes the light is way too bright it's way to bright Why don't you turn out the light oh, turn out the light Why don't you turn out the light turn out the light Turn out the light Turn out the light |

Betrayed by the one who says she loves you
by the one who says she needs you above all other men Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed Justice taught her confidence her mother was like steel her cousins, they're all convicts she alone rose above that wheel But a motorcyclist no matter how good is slave to the oncoming truck and the poison of her father was her most pitiless luck Betrayed by the one who says she loves you by the one who says she needs you above all other men Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed Three of us lie in this bed night of infamy one of us lies on our back her father's in her head And quick she turns and slaps my face and with her eyes open wide she screams I hate you, I hate you, I hate you but she's looking right past me Betrayed by the one who says she loves you by the one who says that she needs you above all other men Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed And I lie down betrayed I lie down betrayed |

I'm cruising fast on a motorcycle
down this winding country road And I pass the gravel on the foot of the hill where last week I fell off There's still some oil by the old elm tree and a dead squirrel that I hit But if I hadn't left, I would have struck you dead so I took a ride instead Bottoming out bottoming out Bottoming out bottoming out My doctor says, she hopes I know how lucky I can be after all it wasn't my blood mixed in the dirt that night But this violent rage, turned inward can not be helped by drink And we must really examine this and I say I need another drink Bottoming out bottoming out Bottoming out bottoming out I'm tearing down Route 80 east the sun's on my right side I'm drunk, but my vision's good and I think of my child bride And on the left in shadows I see something that makes me laugh I aim that bike at the fat pothole beyond that underpass Bottoming out bottoming out Bottoming out bottoming out Bottoming out bottoming out Bottoming out bottoming out |

Sitting in our rooftop garden
looking down below Sitting in our rooftop garden waiting for the sun Isn't it lovely watching a plane go by What a lovely couple are you and I Sitting in our rooftop garden a few drops of rain The lights in the city blinking on just the same No sugar in my coffee how's your tea In our rooftop garden above the city Let's not see any letters let's not answer the phone Let's just pretend that there's no one at home In our rooftop garden in our rooftop garden In our rooftop garden up on the roof |
