It Couldn't Be Me

We’re driving through the canyons
Singing songs from the sixties
The telephone rang, she said
«Babe, do ya miss me?»
And ain’t it a shame not to love
The one you’re with
Well, she spoke with the prettiest mouth
And she scorned me
She sharpened her teeth
And flashed them to warn me
Said, «Ain't it a shame when you hate
The one you loved?»
Hey, it couldn’t be me
It couldn’t be me
No, they’re mining your dreams
He don’t look a thing like me
See, I dated this rich girl
With a mother of pearl
Who paid rent in her high rise
The weight of the world
And ain’t it a shame when you’re exchanging
All your brand new gifts
And after a night on the floor
She put the chain on her door
I wore out my welcome
I guess she got bored
'Cause she laid eyes on my brother
And laid him across my bed
And it couldn’t be me
It couldn’t be me
No, they’re mining your dreams
He don’t look a thing like me
Well, it sounds like rain
And here, that’s a rare thing
Out here in this desert
We’re stealing our water
From a hole in a mountain
That flows to the affordable homes
And from a faucet, it drips
So we’ll clean up the messes
The others have left us
Well I think they blessed us
There’s a chain on my door
But I’m in love with the one I’m with
Hey, it couldn’t be me
It couldn’t be me
No, they’re mining your dreams
He don’t look a thing like me
And it couldn’t be me
No, it couldn’t be me
No, they’re mining your dreams
He don’t look a thing like me
