Come off it, you know you want to start it Just tell it right Come off it, you know you have to drop this A thousand acre canvas and you couldn't bear to crop it I'm a little tired, i'm a little weak It weighs an ounce in silver, and ten pounds in fresh meat When she fools you, she fools you in distortion The night rare topics left us all out in the open If it lasts an instant, it will smart one week If it costs a weekend, oh my god oh good grief I haven't seen you now for years I hear you stepping down each step Your body burning through a shuttered glade I'll play the listing doctor, righted by the rube, You play the unkempt nurse, where lighting's confused They tangle antlers over all you said you think you could do Which tangle up mine too, but i'll be back next year, With a cape and a cane, and my frail restraints First the actors, then brokers, last the ad-men lose disdain You got off early, from where ever you'd been One single flaw, and we're back at the beginning I haven't seen you now for years I hear you stepping down each stair A knowing laugh that could defy that place I can feel it shifting back, from this, from this I can feel it shifting back, from this, from this You play the sleeping circuit boards, I'll play a rye escort We could stand outside the din, again, again We could stand outside the halls, again, again You might even want me still, you just don't know how
