Testi

You only walk straight when it's dark outside
Pretend you got a cat to ride
Top of you, it's just like jumping a fence
It hurts like hell, this dancing
But if I climb down there's nothing to sell
Between the evening and all the church bells
Hey man, at least you did it all by yourself
Hang in, you bang, you still got your health
Your boy calls, says he needs a friendly ear
But all I want's a beer
In twenty minutes with your hand down there
Be hard, be thirsty near me
You left an old matchbook on my windowsill
But it was empty and you had to fill
You threw it away and I reached for a pill
You thumbed and read through an old method show still
The last word starts right here, you know
It's got nowhere to go
The last song ends, the lights fall low
We've got nothing to show
And I'll just lie here huddled in my lap
Of afterglow, you stop
When you peeled your body off mine like a sticker off a new wine glass
You got warm, so come off nice and fast
The names you misspelled but the faces they fell
You act like a sellout but it's just as well
Let's take this roadshow back to the hotel
Turn on a new show, let's fill the crowd
I take a long, hard, heavy sip
Then I drag from your last cigarette
And it's almost as stale and limp
As a soft, cold kiss from your lips
The last word starts right here, you know
It's got nowhere to go
The last song stops, the lights fall low
We've got nothing to show
