Rude Awakenings |
| The bed was still warm where I slept |
| From these hours I wish to forget |
| With the night still fresh on my breath |
| I awoke to the grim face of death |
| I thought it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| I thought it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| As I crawled across the floor for the door |
| From one room I don’t know to the next |
| There was nothing familiar around |
| And it just ain’t my style to leave the seat down |
| I thought it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| I thought it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| I pulled on my clothes still half in a dream |
| As I struggled with my conscience & a multidirectional stream |
| (What ya take her for?) |
| I buried my loneliness with her for the night |
| Then I left with new symptoms no antidepressant could cure |
| (What ya take her for?) She took me for all I was worth |
| May I remind you that ain’t much at all |
| A meaningless gesture in the meanest of times |
| As it turns out you weren’t worth the call |
| I though it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| I though it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| But now I’m left with a daily reminder of you |
| With equal surprise she opened her eyes |
| Sat up and shouted «for christ sakes who the hell are you?» |
| (What she take ya for?) |
| She cooked me my breakfast then called me a cab |
| Shoved me out the door and threw the five dollar fare in my face |
| (What she take ya for?) She took me for all I was worth |
| May I remind you that ain’t much at all |
| A meaningless gesture in the meanest of times |
| As it turns out you weren’t worth the call |
| I though it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| I though it was all just a nightmare, I guess it was true |
| But now I’m left with a daily reminder of you |
