Ballad for My Little Hyena

Your chauffeur-driver man Only got one hand That he steers around the visions You think that your command On your patch of ground Small hyenas prowl It is just expedience That keeps the sun going 'Round and 'round Little sweet hyenas Conveniently tame Bittersweet hyenas Never far away Love leaves you alone Then pain will come for sure When friends and foes will tell ya You ain't dangerous no more Your head is filling up Can't concentrate on much Wrap your arms around the one thing You can never touch The lust for something clean What then can it mean A killer so afraid of dying And baby, you don't wanna die near Little sweet hyenas Never far away Bittersweet hyenas Conveniently tame You just can't forget Who your lips have met Though you fell some premonition It's you that can't connect Your head is filling too 'Til you can't think it through To know that everyone around Keeps breathing without you You stole some absolution From things you've gone and done A killer so afraid of dying 'Cause baby, you don't wanna die near Little sweet hyenas Never far away Bittersweet hyenas Never far away Little sweet hyenas Never far away Bittersweet hyenas Conveniently tame
