Paradise |
The phone, it has been ringing |
Ringing off the hook |
And the creditors have said |
That all of your debts have grown legs |
And are running off the books |
Correctional facilities |
Sure, I’ll accept your calls |
But the tales have grown tall |
And the till isn’t at all |
And tears are only bread crumbs |
For the crooks |
And my paycheck, it is bleeding |
But it’s fight or flight |
The exit from debt could be the entrance |
Into paradise |
What are you doing daytimes? |
Shooting out your windows, I bet |
But the flocks of your dreams |
Know that it’s hunting season |
It’s a joke that you’ll never get |
Because wooden ducks, they do not bleed |
And try as you might |
The only goose that you’ll bite |
Is the goose egg you call your wife |
When the bars announce it’s closing time |
And my heart, it is still beating |
But it’s fight or flight |
The exit from loneliness is not necessarily |
The entrance into paradise |
Into paradise |
Of all the men I’ve known |
Who have money |
I like you the most |
Because every dollar you invent |
You’re even more hell-bent |
On risking life and limb for another toast |
When we were falling into puddles |
I knew you had it in for me Scraped my face on the ground |
Until blood was down me From my nose to the hem of my jeans |
And my heart, it is still bleeding |
But it’s fight or flight |
The exit from loneliness |
Could be the entrance into paradise |
Into paradise |
