Don't know if your carin' Truth is worth tearing Though we're miles apart Front door leavin' Is the way I've been feelin' Twenty days overboard That's the way the hinge turns, just half way 'round Believe it all first, finally flickers out No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake No more parades Got to know a friend With a think tank and a farm And you couldn't ask for better Works on dreams Inside of her schemes Lives like the words in a song That's the way the hinge turns, just half way around Believe it all first, finally flickers out No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake No more parades A pesticide moon hangs Cold coffee and tears Flowin' out of the brain Shoulda caught the bus Shoulda pulled in line Shoulda made up for that down time That's the way the hinge turns, just half way around Believe it all first, finally flickers out No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake No more parades
