Tekst Utworu

The cynic doesn't speak for you benefit
This man is not your tenement
I sat next to him in my black baby doll dress
As we whispered like children before driving south west
He writes songs like me
He can see what I concede
Leads death to a cheap motel bed
Said: "it ain't what what it seems"
Sees the world like the star
No, no the one in Florida
Notes the rusty razors in the gutter
The broke office chair in the alley way
"Hey Charon can I get a free ride?"
He's the scapegoat, pass them the knife
They got morbid thoughts just like you
Except they don't have the constitution to admit it
Sometimes he takes me out in his boat
He makes laugh and then pushes up my skirt
Met him when he was less cruel
Used to shock him with the things I'd say and do
He luxuriates in your contempt for him
He's learned to work with the resentment
It grows warm in his palm
His words move through me like a Psalm
A patient man told me I'm a patient woman
I said that Charon's always been good to me
Don't take much to get on his bad side
Paperback Steinbeck worn out on his bedside
He wants to invest in a heroin addiction
Toys with the idea like nuclear fission
Charon's been busy dealing needles in the body bus
This kinda business warrants his derision
He's a man about town these days
Can't help but think he's running away from me
There's a man with a cap at his feet
Charon's by his side urging along the beat
He's a big deal now feel the heat
He doesn't get tired he doesn't need to eat
I was once larger than life, now I'm 25
He's on the big plane now he's got a seat
Notes my beauty like a prayer to me
And to the ocean he is devout
You should see him on his knees
His guitar screams and shrieks and squeals in his embrace
Like the panther calling for its mate
He comes when I whisper
He cowers when I shout
Now what's that all about?
I've got some theories about him
I dare not speak most of them out loud
Out loud
Out loud
Out loud
Out loud
Now what's that all about? 'Bout
Now what's that all about?
