Abandon

I know you're the only one who understands Afore ye go, before you leave You always shake my hand Even when I'm crazy, on fire and naked Just as Nature intended No style but easily blended You always know where I'll be found Hanging somewhere near the ground Help me up or help me down Don't want to lose those days When everything is just a haze I'm dreaming I believe I could walk before I learned to crawl When I look up, the Devil's looking back From the mirror on the wall You can open the door Got my feet stuck to the floor I may have lost my way But I didn't get where I am today Don't want to lose those days When everything is just a haze I'm dreaming You spin into my empty room And once again I'm almost human Almost human

You stare into the room, nothing there but space No sign of any message gone without a trace But I don't want your pity, if that's what you think I'll take my comfort from this hole I'm sinking in Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny Don't make me good Don't make me mad Don't make me fly Don't make me happy It's nice here in this room, you would like it, yes you would It's got a bed, two chairs and a table, I'd leave here if I could There's a man standing up who's down on his knees Outside the cold wind sends a shiver through the trees On the line, left behind, under pressure It's so bad, leave me be, I don't want to get better Don't make me good Don't make me mad Don't make me fly Don't make me happy I don't care what you think but think about this It could have been somebody else, beware of what you wish Now the door is closed, locked and sealed And now you think you know how rejection feels Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny Don't make me good Don't make me mad Don't make me fly Don't make me happy

I've been to places where the sun goes down Each day and never rises I've been to places in a dark room Where we played with our disguises Heaven, I'm in heaven I'm in seventh heaven now Seventh heaven It was a dream, I heard a voice I put it down to wishful thinking It was a dream, a silent scream Out of the blue, a new beginning Heaven, I'm in heaven I'm in seventh heaven now Seventh heaven And then I fell upon a stroke of luck That led to my good fortune And then I fell upon my knees And gently kissed the ground you walk on Heaven, I'm in heaven I'm in seventh heaven now Seventh heaven

I sit here alone I sit here alone I look at the walls Look at the walls Look at the walls I look at the walls You shouldn't be out on your own Oh no not with a condition like that Oh no sir constant care A condition like that, a condition so rare A penny for the guy, a penny for your thoughts One a penny, two a penny in your pocket Ding dong bell, who can tell Wild Man Fisher got nothing on me I sit by the water I sit by the water Watch it go by Clouds going by I'm watching the sky I left my luggage at the station Didn't know how to say goodbye I walked away from all the fury And the madness and the fury And the madness and the fury And the madness I smile to myself I smile to myself You're on the blind side, I'm on the other side Now I'm on the outside looking for another side Upside down side, I'm still lucid I may be crazy but I'm not stupid Try to get out, the parking lot's full No matter, no matter, what's a man going to do One two buckle my shoe Zip my lip

Everything went wrong I'm sorry boys, I've got to let you go We've had some hard times And the long rain, it didn't show Hired hands, I've seen them come and go But you don't come much better Today's Blue Monday I just got a bad news letter This day has come The darkest cloud on our horizon My hands are tied down To that promise note I signed upon Always been this way It's the poor man who gets hurt All you ever work for Is to leave your footprints in the dirt You work your fingers to the bone The deed is done The fruit will fall to someone else's hand That's how the land lies Now we all know where we stand You'll have to walk away Don't let them see you running Today's Blue Monday I should have seen it coming You work your fingers to the bone If sweat and tears were all it took To make this valley green We'd be alright but now it's gone They've taken everything They say it's just an act of God And that's the way ill wind blows You've got thirty days to pack your bags Say goodbye, hit the road You work your fingers to the bone

There's no method in my madness, no craft, no guile No expertise, no self assuring smile No wizardry or witchcraft, no crass deceit No dark conspiracies, I stand on my own two feet I'm coming through just like Jack Ruby I ragged around the edges but I got control There's no way around it and I got control I reach out for my program, still got control Straight down to business, who needs control I've got panache just like Jack Ruby I don't beg forgiveness, I don't beg at all But I beg to differ cos I got the ball There was no invitation, you're not my type And what's gone, it ain't worth having, kiss it all goodbye Right on the money just like Jack Ruby

She was, she was She was all that she said she was She was all that she said she was I couldn't want for more but all I want is more I just want her more and more and more and more and more But she's untouchable And I lay my head down, I lay my head down And then she's lovable Who were you with last night? Who were you with last night? Were you thinking of me? And where you thinking of me? Unforgivable sin, unforgivable sin, unforgivable You're untouchable And I lay my head down, I lay my head down She coming my way, she coming my way I don't know what to say, she coming my way She fading away, she fading away And I lay my head down, I lay my head down

Unforgettable face, I can't think of her name It's on the edge of my tongue, gathering dust in the back of my brain Something 'bout the way she ignores me that's vaguely familiar Makes you wonder what it was you ever did to thrill her Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again I never felt the need to soothe her savage breast She never felt obliged to tell me of her change of address Caught me on a downward swing but I fell through her arms How could I be so careless, I never meant to go so far Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again Oh she's back in town Oh she's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away She took it all away, now she's back for the rest Took it all so easy, wouldn't settle for less She doesn't know what she wants but she knows how to get it I can't remember the time, she never let me forget it Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again Oh Whatsername's back in town She's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away Oh she's back in town Oh she's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away

Some say the state of Texas Could accommodate the entire human population Five point six billion versions of the truth Under one roof, some revelation Tale a bit of this, give a bit of that Put it in a blender, pull it out a hat There's no going back It's a lie, it's a fact Has the cat got your tongue Been too long in the sun There's dust on your tracks There's no going back Come to think of it's a load of monkeys Every time you listen to your sun kissed lover's words Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness It's a game of madness in a perfect world Some would say French cuisine's more appealing Than a cold drink, burgers and fries Some have said that a pillar of society An upright citizen's incapable of lust and crime Tale a bit of this, give a bit of that Put it in a blender, pull it out a hat But he don't stand a change With his pants around his ankles Has the cat got your tongue Been too long in the sun There's dust on your tracks There's no going back

Got a black breast Chinese eyes Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise Got a long story that I want to tell To a rhythm that I know so well Really got a lot of loving that I want to give Baby I'm a mystery but you know I got to live I tried another, she didn't want to know Oh no no no Take a hold now if you can Take a lesson from a hard loving man I'm a long way from where I want to go Guess I'll stay a while, I really love you so How's about another sip of all the wine you've got Take a tip from me and give it here, I'll drink the lot I'm not a winey, I'm putting on a show Wah no no no You really grab me but I gotta move Before they know I'm here and spread the news Maybe in while when I move around I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds Really got a lot of loving that I wan to give Baby I'm a mystery but you know I got to live I tried another, she didn't wanna know Oh no no no
