[Verse 1]. I've been running around. like an un-kept kid. Trying to remember. the things I did. If I went too far. I hope it doesn't do me in. . Cause they tell me a man.
You - wanna swim with the sharks. And if they tear you apart. Then it is what it is, said you don't' wanna live. Soft. . You - light a smoke in the bar.
Down southern, pulled under. Crossed fingers, eyes wander. A torn t-shirt, warm evening. A dark secret you can't keep it. . But in the car all the stars arrive on my ceiling.
Wait your turn. You always go for the jugular. Like a juggernaut. Spinning off the asphalt. We wait around pacing round this table. You arrive on time to help us lift the trophy.
Down here underneath the microscope,. it's hard to cope.. don't hide your face in your hands,. 'cause if your eyes play tricks,. it's outta my control..
If you happen to read this, Rose was born. Child actress, on the fifth day of the snow. Be good or be gone. Be good or be, be gone. . The range is staggering, movement and timing.
Pittsburgh is where I come from,. Born to two but raised by none.. Grandpa left a treasure chest,. set me up for life I guess.. And now I am a man,. throwing up the night in a garbage can..
A telegram arrived today,. it is time to catch the Monteray,. cos' the man i wed' he waits for me,. and the daughter that he's yet to see,. the U.S navy beamed its message,.
We were both 18 the year that we met. I was slighty older but not by much. One look at you and I knew that was it. And your voice sounded like an angel above.

I picked her up in a January storm. She was breathing the coldest air she'd ever known. Carrying the sun on her skin from the home far away. I didn't know what she was leaving behind.
We grew up together in an urban town. Just me and Bill Jones always hanging around. A mumma's little boy he was an only child. His clothes were always neat and his hair carefuly styled.
In the doorway it stands. Like a bouncer in black. It tries to reach for your feet. When you think that you scared it away. And you think that you scared it away.
Ice, water. Drink it down 'till it's gone. I saw her. Drink it down 'till it's gone. Oh well,. There's always a second time around. . So bitter. In my heart and in my mouth.
Deco tower, rainbow fountain showers. Crystal columns, silver tabloid entry. The celebrity cemetery. . A faded trail of a golden age. that flickered out into celluloid ashes.
All I need is some sunshine. All I need. All I need is some sunshine. All I need. . The siren called beyond the treeline. With another one for the caves.
Welcome back my buried brother. Shake hard and take the upper hand. And may never be forgotten. Who here is the better man. But there's no competition buddy.
