Ballad Of A Landlord |
| on the day you arrived |
| the bedroom curtains were drawn |
| all was still |
| the way you left it same number on the door |
| easy come, easy go what a way to treat your soul |
| though i confess |
| where once hearts rested |
| now there’s nothing |
| but a hole |
| so the prodigal son returns |
| i guess the pleasure’s not enough |
| did he promise you the earth |
| a world of beauty an the bluff |
| i tried to tend the garden |
| until the flowers fell to weed |
| so now the place lies in a ruin |
| the way you lied and ruined me do i have the answer |
| if i did i wouldn’t know |
| so take it if you want it if you don’t |
| then let me go fake leopard skin fur says it all |
| you never could be real |
| how i long to taste the secrets |
| from your lands of phoney tears |
| you tried to be a movement |
| but there was no one on your side |
| did you come back here to haunt me or take me for a ride |
| take yourself away |
| i’ve been here once before |
| and i can’t have you hurting me anymore |
