The Dog-end of a Day Gone By

Dog-End of a Day Gone By
There’s a man on the corner
Coming on like Moses
Flogging new religion
like a bunch of plastic roses
He’s found his path
To the bleeding heart of jesus
You tell him
You’ve found yours
Heir to a future
You never made
There is nothing less amusing
Then the amusement arcade
In a city without a soul
Newspaper boys selling you the hard truth
Lucifer employs idle hands by night and day
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Don’t let the smoke get in your eyes
Well the drunk outside the Wendy’s
Is becoming less than friendly
A dog is barking at the moon
The drunk outside the windy
Is becoming less than friendly
A dog is barking at the moon
You want to get away
From the city of light
Then when you’ve gone
You want to get back
It is some strange addiction
When you need to put yourself
Back in your eye
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Don’t let the smoke get in your eye
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by
Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
Don’t let the smoke get in your…
Stub out the dog-end of a day gone by, boy
