Lately I I've been heading for a breakdown Every time I leave my house Well, it feels just like a shake down Between street sweepers and the pushers are the lawyers Who may as well be butchers Between the small timing hustlers who all Seem to feed upon each other Oh, God, why you been Hanging out in that ol' violin While I've been waiting for you To pull me through? Lately I Every time I try to lie down While my mind just gets away I can't even close my eyes now Between the big fish and ambition and the lovers Using words as ammunition Between the wood planks, I've been pacing and this Impossible dream that I've been chasing Oh, God, why you been Hanging out in that ol' violin While I've been waiting for you To pull me through? Oh, God Oh, God Oh, God, why you been Hanging out in that ol' violin While I've been waiting for you To pull me through? Oh, God Oh, God Oh, God
