Don't care how you rage, in winter's iron claw, you can’t beat the cage, there is no tune, just a shallow maw, ships sail under blue moons, work is just a game, say everyone's your whore, put salt on your days, sad song's ring on cue, what a cache they hoard, smoke ciggies in the rain, every trick in use, it’s all such a bore, curdled love lights the fuse, no one is to blame, why make them roar, a generation betrayed, conceal bitter news, take it to the shore, drink on borrowed goods, dance forever more.

My song creates good mojo, nothing to be taught, you know whose it for, it jumps like a flea, whoever takes the tour, always lands on me, just this bag of bones, a lender of last resort, It won't let you doze, each tune a jumping bean, brings you back for more, makes you dig this scene, dancing in my zone, like you used to before, our time is never gone, it floats across the sea, your dress sweeps the floor, say hello to dreams, laughing smooths your tones, brings solace to the poor, tempers your groans, opens every door.

You ask me what's new, never one to help the poor, always smart on cue, you wouldn’t say please, confined to any wall, an innate sense of ease, fools are there to queue, waiting by the doors, you’d bust any curfew, bad guys on the street, hardly make you pause, when you hear the screams, no one can bust through, hand you out some chores, make you sweat anew, you know where you've been, with your filthy tours, will you ever bleed, you’re not my glue, dancing like some commodore, your head full of tunes, checking out the score.

Now you know, how people feel, in their bones, that jilted smile's a strain, watered by the stream, they’ll note it anyway, take the time right now, unlock without a key, your luminous frown, why seek the rain, peer in mountain streams, don't need to catch a train, you’ve nothing to bestow, with other crazy schemes, in your moving picture show, such a long time away, to live within a dream, now face each coming day, you don't have to furrow, say where you've been, before the cock crows, everyone will see

Never one to search for gain, every track burnt, don't you ever feel the pain, or get sore, forgetting what you learnt fixing a broken front door, no matter what it takes, you’re always present, to ungrateful ‘probates, fools sing for applause, get drunk like the wretched, you know the score, no need to remonstrate, to bring out your best, what a player you make, two and two make four, you scatter the difference, never ask for more, but when the night breaks, your poor investments, shatter and flake, what will you do then?

When you start to say, why I always swim alone, just give me a break, sit on the wire, don't make a run, you’re not a flyer, not a second to waste it's lonely on stones, but more to my taste listening to the cryers, our bed’s rough-hewn, it calms all desires, give us our day, not a long megaphone, where we can bray, we are not like Sapphires, we’ll never atone, draw air to the fire, it'll be our holiday, so far from an Iliad, won't inquire about gain, or where we’re going.

Each kiss makes me fry, will he see, the gaps between my lies, sometimes just a little move, more heavens place to be, even if I don’t feel love, terrible places hard care, they still let me dream, no one kids you there, kiss get dressed need a hug, what about my teeth, grace comes from above, act like I don't care, scrubbed sparkling clean, I sail through the air, Joey’s my new shove, he might rescue everything, rise each night in flood, it's only fair, when evening turns green, you take what you can, it’s not me who screams ?
