cigarettes and chocolate milk
|
these are just a couple of my cravings
|
everything it seems i like's a little bit stronger
|
a little bit thicker
|
a little bit harmful for me
|
|
if i should buy jellybeans
|
have to eat them all in just one sitting
|
everything it seems i like's a little bit sweeter
|
a little bit fatter
|
a little bit harmful for me
|
|
and then there's those other things
|
which for several reasons we won't mention
|
everything about them is a little bit stranger
|
a little bit harder
|
a little bit deadly
|
|
it isn't very smart
|
tends to make one part so broken-hearted
|
|
sitting here remembering me
|
always been a shoe made for the city
|
go ahead, accuse me of just singing about places
|
with scrappy boys faces
|
have general run of the town
|
playing with prodigal songs
|
takes a lot of sentimental valiums
|
can't expect the world to be your raggedy andy
|
while running on empty
|
you little old doll with a frown
|
|
you got to keep in the game
|
maintaining mystique while facing forward
|
i suggest a reading of 'a lesson in tightropes'
|
or 'surfing your high hopes' or 'adios kansas'
|
|
it isn't very smart
|
tends to make one part so broken-hearted
|
|
still there's not a show on my back
|
holes or a friendly intervention
|
i'm just a little bit heiress, a little bit irish
|
a little bit tower of pisa whenever i see you
|
so please be kind if i'm a mess
