Look at me I seethe, is it my grey hair, do I need new teeth, I’m always too late, as if you'd care, step on me like a crate, what might have been, is not fair, just need a bit of ease, nights I sway, without a slur, I can take the strain, don't sing of the sea, you're not that aware, these fine evenings, like a fish to the bait, your eyes blur, say I'm great, but can you love me, do you dare, I'm shaping to leave, are you scared?

Your love make me faint, where else can you go, my eyes look grave, forget what's not fair, in the life of soul, I’m not that square, take my hand and hesitate, don't make me groan, show me the milky way, it's not my long hair, plaided like a tow rope, that makes you scared, I go against the grain, out here alone, find you hard to relegate, my song is my lair, think it’s me you own, inside this magic fair, the howl resonates, world's not made of stone, hands across my face, all you need to know.

Don't break holy orders, claim it’s too much bother, stuff you swore, love is free to crash, all the stuff you smother, a window without a sash, can you see my core, belly like an oven, alive with burning flaws, whenever money's crap, you curse my brothers, say love’s not on tap, hard stuff behind a door, fools live without shutters, then run away fraught, book and deeds lashed, I won’t lie like the others, will ignore their cash, pay a heavy score, I’ve always been another, scent for me is raw, better take cover.

Lit up like some ocean bar, within the hurricane zones, I search for forgotten laws, only fools pay their dues, let you drink alone, leave me here to stew, you can only go so far, before the lining folds, start to shine the parts, even without a feud, on throwaway 'phones, my ravaged face turns Blue, your hair is like tar, Saints reveal their bones, where’s he gone your Da, this trail is well used, far away from home, does life circle around you, mine is not a lucky star, sometimes hits the right note, this decking for a Spa, tales of love a joke.

I throw away the years, every age has its past, the laughs and happy tears, no life is too short, for those you trust, within our toil of waters, you run like the deer, with a smell of musk, hazy bars you step clear, I knew I’d be caught, spinning pennies in the dust, am overawed, on what brought me here, bathed on this tidal flood, for you to be sincere, no book or district Court, hides the fact I’m bust, what I sought, blows flame across my fears, brings me all the luck, hopes before you disappear, riding on the dusk.

You won't see me hail, anyone else’s prances, on roads of darkest pale, always play the fool, wait for kindness to pass, no path is smooth, nothing more to say, a gift of pure chance, when you come my way, I rage against lost feuds, lilac at a lonely fast, they don’t get to you, life is like a freighter, and our faces tanned, pushing down the highway, I know what to do, pull over make a stand, you're no fool, study me again, test your eyes for balance, say what you want to say, give me a chance

Stand by an unlit lamp, a tree, a bridge, shaking, I wait like a tramp, Inside hear some muted song, who would ever say, I used to belong, better take a chance, play this game, maybe go to France, hope I’m not wrong, looking at the rain, stream against a lovely bar, wonder how much it costs, shuffle what remains, no more wounds to lance, someone will come along, Heh Pal come this way, put something in my pocket, cigarettes and laughs, beer like champagne, my life dances, praise each sweet day.
