An Old Man Gave Me A Tip He Said
"Don't Waste Your Time With Politics" He Said
"Just Chase Skirts Instead"
"Life Is Too Short, And Your Almost Dead" He Said
"I Met A Woman Once, I Gave Her My Best Shot"
"But Never Did I Talk"
"If I Had Her Back, I'd Be As Real As My Age"
"I So Don't Blame Them, I Wouldn't Do The Same"
"But I Can Blame Them, I'd Sing Her This"

And You Want To Be Dressed In Poetry
But Imagery Doesn't Fit
And You Want Resizing
But Darling Dear Get A Grip

And I Think What I Just Wrote Is Going Over My Head
I'm Stealing Lines From Myself
And What I Said Was Never Said
It's Just A Lyrical Lie [x2]
Made Up In My Mind [x2]

And You Want To Be Dressed In Poetry
But Imagery Doesn't Fit
And You Want Resizing
But Darling Dear Get A Grip

You're Moving But Not Aware
You're Drowsy Without A Care
Except Keeping Your Whites Behind Your Lids
And Your Lids Are Your Best Canvas
I Can Only Imagine What Your Painting, What Your Painting
And Your Body On My Mattress Is Proof
And Your Makeup On Your Pillow Is Proof
But Do You Think I Am Telling You The Truth

And You Want To Be Dressed In Poetry
But Imagery Doesn't Fit
And You Want Resizing
But Darling Dear Get A Grip

And You Want To Be Dressed In Poetry
But Imagery Doesn't Fit
And You Want Resizing
But Darling Dear Get A Grip
