Take me as I am, put me some place warm. Lay me down in dreams and feathers lady. You could be a friend, just stretch out your arms. Hold me close until the ghosts fade baby.
She works all day at the Burger King. Gettin' greasy for the dollars. Promoted to fries. But there's tears in her eyes. It's not the grease or the pickles that upset her.
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?. You been out ridin' fences for so long now. Oh, you're a hard one but I know that you got your reasons.
I make my living off the evening news. Just give me something, something I can use. People love it when you lose. They love dirty laundry. . Well, I could've been an actor, but I wound up here.
Life in the fast lane. This is dedicated to you Ben Stiller. You are my favorite motherfucker. I told you, didn't I?. . Drama makes the world go around.
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?. You been out ridin' fences for so long now. Oh, you're a hard one. But I know that you got your reasons.
Nobody on the road. Nobody on the beach. I feel it in the air. Summer's out of reach. . Empty lake, empty streets. The sun goes down alone. I'm driving by our house.
You can make money, you can make good friends. You make mistakes and you can make amends. You can make it easy when push comes to shove but. You can't make love.

One finger on the button, one finger up his nose. Johnny's in some cornfield, the early warning blows. Bigger is better and more is more. Look up, America, gonna even up the score.
Oh, they tell me of a home far beyond the skies. Oh, they tell me of a home far away. Oh, they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise. Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day.
Is this what you wanted?. Did you even think twice?. Didn't they tell you that anything. That feels this good comes with a price?. . It gave you such a rush.
I had a good life. Before you came. I had my friends and my freedom. I had my name. . Still there was sorrow and emptiness. Till you made me glad. Oh, in this love.
Well, she got up every morning. And she waited in the cold. Got on the stinking yellow school bus. And did what she was told. And she stared out the window.
Every day's a new day. That's what I've been told. Try to hold your head high. The world runs hot and cold. . It's hard to follow footprints. In the shifting sands.
You live in a house of mirrors. Reflecting your splendid isolation. You have so much of everything. Except for true consideration. . The way you dance.
Well, a lot of things have happened. Since the last time we spoke. Some of them are funny. Some of them ain't no joke. . And I trust you will forgive me.
On a misbegotten, moonless night, I stumbled in my door. Disgusted with my circumstance, soaked to every pore. When floating from my bedroom, came a moaning and a sigh.
I see these women at the car wash. Women at the mall, little-bitty women and women who are tall. One of them is perfect and I want her for myself. Never gonna settle for anybody else.
