And the days come to you like sailors; You watch them as they drift away.

Don't fool yourself in thinking you're more than you are With your arms outstretched to me

And if you banish me from your prophets and if i get banished from the kingdom up above; I'd sacrifice money and heaven, all for love.

And now the weather gets cold But you can finally breathe Seemed some things are going prefect They helped you to make believe

If you think I'm paranoid, that's fine Cause I've got evidence on my side

All the compliments that you take, they will get you there All the hearts that you break, they will get you there

If you want better things I want you to have them If you want better things Then I want you to have them

I been clubbed and I been snubbed By the dogs of LA And I been burned and I been learned In the same city

Well, my husband, he's leaving,and I can't convince him to stay. And he'll take our daughter with him, she wants to go with him anyway.

I cry, cry, cry, then I complain Come back for more, do it again

Folk singers sing songs for the workin', baby We're just recreation for all those doctors and lawyers

Those disobedient wrecks! How you cared for them as they carried you From class to class and coast to coast

The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity. Look, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing, A smoking gun holding ape.

If my brain quits, well, I guess then that's just it. And if my hands stop working, you can call me lazy.

But if the weather gets bad And you feel yourself fall for him I'll try not to feel satisfied

And I have no idea what's been going on lately And I just wish you'd come over and explain things

Let's not forget ourselves, good friend. I am flawed if i'm not free. Your husband will never leave you, he will never leave you for me.

Ooh, it feels good to be free!

It's gonna be a close call

I found myself staring at the closed oak door like the day she threw me out.
