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 |
