Olivia
Is that you Lady,
laughing as you go,
to keep men happy,
make me the same call,
by the river's flow,
tenderness in a Mall,
back in the bayou lakes,
the year of the blow,
give me a piece of cake,
geese in a barren fall,
rise slowly and croak,
don't make me bawl,
keep that trouble at bay,
no life is worth a moan,
give it one more day,
we'll go to the ball,
your face a pure glow,
diamonds make you tall,
in the brutal trades,
smile as only you know,
go beyond busy freeways,
use quieter roads.

Some nights i ask why,
if we'll ever atone,
stars rain down like fire,
is it to our shame,
we extend the loans,
still so far from fame,
come close within my sight,
the wind is running cold,
stay a little while,
are kids and dogs your game,
then don't get old,
just remain the same,
when you hear me cry,
run from a hanging phone,
it's not enough to sigh,
buy some shiny nails,
let's get going,
a house is not a jail,
no matter how we fight,
reveal our yellow bones,
we can do this right,
breathe the ozone.

Fire and evening light,
won't make me read the news,
save the long goodbye,
escaping from that moan,
they always sings Blues,
in North or Southern tones,
this village is my life,
is always here to sooth,
not lost on freeway nights,
brings wisdom to my bones,
accepts all I do,
even to quietly atone,
living here's a paradise,
it brings a certain truth,
celebrates an easy life,
to shelter me at home,
sticks to me like glue,
far from being alone,
cities are full of spite,
life through locked windows,
who needs super sight,
to see who's fooling you?

Beat against my walls,
throw salt at the rain,
hover at infirmary's door,
thank God for my home,
you only bring shame,
looking always to gloat,
what are you good for,
living life on a train,
use only the local stores,
at least try to atone,
dance away my pain,
blow kisses down the phone,
you'll ship out the whores,
make my face turn pale,
Baby you'll roar,
don't ask me any more,
spinning out your games,
no one needs your jaw,
why always touch the bone,
never want to say,
love is always raw,
face yourself again.

Since you've gone away,
i don't know what to do,
but each night pray,
laugh in a hurricane zone,
see my face in pools,
flying like a drone,
don't trick me anyway,
the sea surrounds your crew,
are you on that plane,
lead me to the foam,
take me if you want to,
not just as a loan,
walls are turning grey,
the sky is always blue,
are you on the make,
I want to go alone,
not singing out my news,
with your bag of stones,
your eyes shine like jakes,
look at me in truth,
I'm risen that's the shame,
far too good for you.

My red lips flash ornate,
in rooms where flowers grow,
champagne cognac to chase,
forget how much I blew,
banish the need to know,
I'll pawn all the jewels,
won't be an ingrate,
worry about the loans,
celebrate what remains,
I never once did sue,
others who let me down,
like larger parts of you,
why worry with fallen gain,
supper make do with bones,
fish around in drains,
believe me life's a ruse,
dream of good days gone,
waste no time on blues,
wouldn't it be great,
to belt it fresh anew,
die laughing in the rain,
feel you'll never lose.

Hail a ship for France,
say what you want to say,
won't get another chance,
don't let stages run untrue,
if your life is framed,
you're no fool,
face the fact you're banned,
if you let schemes fail,
innocently look askance,
tell you what to do,
when others rail,
try to make things smooth,
why bother to prance,
if evenings run dark pale,
passion always passes,
kindness might acrue,
if you plan to sail,
to some lonely purlieu,
sliding down the scale,
time has gone for dance,
turn things around again,
let us talk finance.
