[Verse 1]. Today is Friday, it is my day to do what I want. Mama can tell me that I'm goin' nowhere. I'm just a prisoner of my fate. Would you come along, bring me in.
Feel like I'm drownin' this time. The world seems to laugh out loud. . I'm comin on back. Follow me out this time. Done hanging my head. Kicking the ground a lot.
Heard it, heartache. Your turn, my turn. Show it, your face. Your turn, my turn. . Same place, some grace. Your turn, my turn. Stand it, stand it. Something involving a lie.
All that's left of me, of me that was, is a former shadow,. Once amidst great work, then she came, and then she came,. That's your point.. And right here's for me; right here and nowhere else..
Tallulah took a shower for an hour. Then walked down the street feeling beautiful and clean. Oh, baby, I know what I mean. . Tallulah met a man at a newstand.
You can have hearing loss when your boyfriend says. He's boss, you're scared of a new endeavor. What can be tempting you?. Who can be tempting you. You look like a winter.
When she sang about angels. She looked at the sky. Anybody else, anybody else. But I let it go by. . When she sang about the fields. She raised up her arm.
She comes home and she's happy. She comes home and she's blue. She comes home and she tells him. Listen baby we're through. . I don't know what happened next.
He was brought up in a house of women. In a city of heat that gave its children. Faith in the fable of coral and fish,. Told them the world was something to miss..
I haven't heard a voice that I can trust. And all this sweetness turns a throat to rust. I'm standing on a quay, wrapped up in mist. The steamer's left with someone that I miss.
She walks me home. There's a Mercedes parked in our street. So we stop and we discuss. Who on earth the owner could be that's just like me. . I'd evade waking up.
Never thought I'd ever hear from you. My slapped face has healed, so has the misunderstanding. And what brings, what brings you around. Amidst this torrid time with your heart near mine?.
A trader in furs living in exile. Boy, what a kook, look at that passport. Stale bread and paper without privilege. If you live here learn the language.
Lord I feel you made the hills, watch them roll.. I've seen the promised land, and that is all.. Please be kind. Please be kind. What the others take; I let them believe..
A ruby waistcoat won't hide my fear. At 12:31 watch my teeth disappear. People buy watches. then tell the time. By the punctual keeling. and crack of my spine.
You and I together, with nothing showing at all,. In a darkened cinema, I'll give you pleasure in the stalls.. Want to give you tenderness, and my affection too..
It took you a week to say. One day you were. . A virtuoso, a virtuoso. The girls have moved. . Some brass band and a marching girl. She likes it that way.
A widow's life is no life at all. Look said the ghost, "There in the hall. Her big brown eyes and northern beer. Pulled her through her living years".
I don't wanna let you out of my sight. Don't wanna let you onto your flight. The fortune teller might have been right. The bad old world can turn your hair white.
Candles and tambourines shine in the dusk. Monkeys and Spoonful float through the musk. Why when you come here does the rainbow turn black?. Spitting and burning, the vision attacks.
