See the lonely girl Out on the weekend Tryin to make it pay She cant relate to joy, ohh She tries to speak it Cant begin to say The boy fooled me again
Well, I'm stranded in the city that never sleeps Some of these women they just give me the creeps I'm avoidin' the south side, the best I can These memories
Maybe I hang around here a little more than I should We both know I got somewhere else to go But I got something to tell you that I never thought I would
Now get up and give in, I'll crack your knuckles again Supplicate and survive this transubstantiation And get so mean, I wanna know what it means Did
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, no, oh I fell in lust with her far before the second dance She had my head spun round Before I even got the chance to realize how
Sometimes in anger we seem to forget All the wrongs that have been done to us We've done to others and regret, pull back You'll see the picture that much
No catch, no strings None of the usual things I'm happy just to lay and look Let's throw out the book Now we're off the hook And please just be nice
A million old soldiers will fade away But a dream goes on forever I'm left standing here, I've got nothing to say All is silent within my dream A thousand

A handful of nothing is all that I need Contains plus and minus everything The odd combinations are what make up The world that you see before you In
Stick to your guns Diamonds are a girl's best friend Nobody knows the trouble this poor boy's seen People will believe anything Man on the run, always
Look at this empty face Look at this broken frame I have been no other place And you know I've heard no other name How can you keep me so? How can I
Like a fly batters itself against a window Time and again and again it senselessly blunders Up and down the length of West Broadway The bag lady wanders
We can't play this game anymore but Can we still be friends? Things just can't go on like before but Can we still be friends? We had something to learn
One more game, one more chance One more orchestrated song and dance He'd be up front and speak his peace And ask for her time to put their heads together
I don't want to work I want to bang on the drum all day I don't want to play I just want to bang on the drum all day Ever since I was a tiny boy I don
It's me, I've thought about us for a long, long time Maybe I think too much but some thing's wrong There's something here that doesn't last too long Maybe
I'm not afraid to bend my back I'm not afraid of dirt But how I fear the things I do For lack of honest work My family is lost to me They could not bear
