|
It ain't no jive |
|
I was burning alive |
|
Whenever you walk in the room |
|
It happened so quickly |
|
I was feeling so sickly |
|
Like a lover who lost his muse |
|
The sharks in the tank or |
|
The men in the bank |
|
He wants my money to loan |
|
I can't understand |
|
What the hell is his plan |
|
While he ain't even got a home |
|
Ain't got a home |
|
Girl on a street |
|
With holes in her feet |
|
Looks through the eyes of a cloud |
|
She don't look amazed |
|
She's feeling kind of sad |
|
So I just walk around |
|
I reassess |
|
She's down on her luck |
|
She's reading a book of lies |
|
I don't know when I'll be coming home baby |
|
But I shall sympathize |
|
Can sympathize |
|
Can sympathize |
|
Angels spread their wings |
|
On all the dirty things |
|
But you |
|
Do |
|
She drops to the floor |
|
Her head's by the door |
|
Her bible is by her side |
|
Heaven is calling |
|
The new world is falling |
|
And she ain't got a single person left |
|
To confide |
|
No one to confide |
|
No one to confide |
|
Ah to confide |
|
I sympathize |
|
Can sympathize |
