Stepping down into the day to watch the leaf turn
|
a praying mantis rested on my western wedding jacket
|
True story, perhaps that¡¯s why the oracle was silent¡¦
|
|
Nothing much is left to chance
|
One sees the sun only at a glance
|
Everything has to be just-so
|
Everything has to be just-so
|
|
In the age of cool opinion, let me be wild passion!
|
And re-edit the ¡®Sacred Heart¡¯ video
|
with a different ending and wig
|
|
Nothing much is left to chance
|
One sees the sun only at a glance
|
Everything has to be just-so
|
Everything has to be just-so
|
|
So, here¡¯s the deal, ante up:
|
A club, to cheat death
|
A heart, so there¡¯s something to lose
|
A diamond, for virtue
|
A spade, to dig with
|
