Baby's talking it's what she does best, |
|
I'll just sit and agree, |
|
Florid insults glide out on her breath, |
|
Mostly 'bout me, (she says) |
|
Can't you see past the mirror sometimes? |
|
Take a look at your peers, |
|
Stretching out all their half-assed ideas, |
|
Into half-assed careers. |
|
Tiger Lily, it's four in the morning, |
|
Tiger Lily, you've got to stop calling me, |
|
Can't catch up with the hours you keep, |
|
Tiger Lily, just go back to sleep. |
|
How d'you keep up with all that goes on? |
|
Names and dates set me reeling, |
|
But when you dialled those numbers that tallied with mine, |
|
Did you notice the time? where did it go? |
|
Now it's twilight outside, |
|
And we've talked half the night, |
|
And what did we say? |
|
Luck could change, maybe today. |
|
Baby's talking it's what she does best, |
|
I'll just sit and agree, |
|
Contradictions glide out on her breath, |
|
Mostly 'bout me, |
|
And where went the time? |
|
Now it's twilight outside, |
|
And we've talked half the night, |
|
And what did we say? |
|
Luck could change, maybe today. |
