Stoplight Roses |
| You’ve practiced and rehearsed |
| But in your heart you know |
| It’s too late |
| Experience should tell you |
| Never get your story too straight |
| You’d better steel yourself |
| And prepare for |
| Some blues to descend |
| 'Cause you’ve broken something this time |
| Stoplight roses can’t mend |
| You’ve dusted off your shame face |
| In the mirror behind the bathroom door |
| That little-boy-lost look |
| That used to work so well |
| Doesn’t anymore |
| If you believe your same-old used-to-be |
| Will see you through |
| You’ll last about as long as stoplight roses do |
| Stoplight roses |
| In their sad array |
| Love’s promise in cellophane lace |
| Or dead giveaway? |
| You’ll need time to devise |
| A stylish plan |
| And you’ll do it driving over to |
| The stoplight roses man |
| And if you believe your same-old used-to-be |
| Will see you through |
| You’ll last about as long as stoplight roses do |
