Lyrics

Not too smart, just out of school
A teacher's pet and modern fool
Talked about bein' freelance broker
But the police caught him tryin' to choke her
Can't describe him in his corner, no, no
Like a rat out of the water, uh-um
Out of work and out of grass
Mother Mary never seems to stop to talk
She just walk on past
Down, down, no information
One day, always away
And why, why can't I see you?
One day, always away
And why, why can't I be you?
One day, always away
He's out of school now, just another taken barstool
And this neighborhood ain't what he had in mind, no, no
Wants to be your girlfriend, wants to be your boyfriend
Wants to be your telephone, wants, wants to be your man
And why, why can't I see you?
One day, always away
Why, why can't I be you?
One day, always away
One day, always away
One day, always away
One day, always away
Down, down, no information
