I'm a slave to my belly, 'cause I've got to be fed. Every morning, well, it lifts me out of bed. Says, "Go to work for me, baby, buy me some bread and some wine".
Watch me at the window from your place on the couch. Watch me pretending that I am really looking out. You say "come here, I can't see you in this light".
T.V. nights and radio days. We all get the same news, all from the same place. We're going to war, they say it's for peace. So watch a few bombs drop and have a good night's sleep..
Eede. . Run Sweet Auburn find your face. Anotheer crowd another place, you ain't changed a thing. 'Cos you're the girl who used to smile. Stayed up all night on the crooked mile, that's how it used to be.
Don't let love let you down. It's been fine up to now. Sahara, I just walked into your world. Sahara, don't walk out on me now. . Don't let time tie you down.
You have a jump in your step. But a rip in your, a rip in your rep. And everybody knows it, so be sure to be proud. And don't forget you aren't allowed to brag.

No one is harder on me than myself or so it seems. And some say that you are my curse. My own worst enemy, I think they're wrong. They never thought our life could be like this.

i oh i. . sometimes it's time to. think about it. sometimes it's time to find time. it's not like you really lost it. like a lucky penny or your mind.
If I'm careful. I won't hate you. When I'm gracious. You won't dare to. . Play your little game. Play your little game. Play your little game. With my mind.

Coming from nowhere. We travelled so far. We are the chosen ones. To follow the star. . We rode this long way together. To offer our strong helping hands.
