Washable Ink Lyrics - John Hiatt

Little girl playin' with the moonlight 

Shine it on me, shine it on me 

There's a cloud over my light and its troubling me, troubling me 

Such a world, such an invitation 

Come as you are, come as you are 

Subject to change, but we'll try not to leave any SCARS 

CHORUS: 

Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away 

They dont want to hear your sad story today 

Everybody's busy whoever they are 

Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough 

But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff 

Wait 'til it rains and give it away 

Little girl, they just want to train you 

To keep them amused, to keep them amused 

They dont know, you got your match to the end of that fuse 

Such a life, such a long vacation 

A tourist parade, man its a tourist parade 

Im going to sleep, wake me up when you've got it made
