Ugly Purple Sweater - 2/3 Creatures lyrics

Everyone lives too far. There's ten dollars in my pocket Two for the El-train fare And three for my supper That leaves five. That's not quite enough if I'm going to survive. She in her chauffeured car pull on up to the sidewalk. She says her father's stern but at heart a good fellow. And then there's the bequest. Always the bequest... I said I'm not sure if I'm one of you creatures And she said "It's not all that bad," But I'm standing alone on the precipice with you. Somebody makes a joke when I show them the diamond. No, it's not 'cause of that it's not 'cause of her money. But how can you tell? How can you tell? Two out of three creatures agree with you baby. But what of the other third? They've got reasons. Alone on the precipice Nothing's as pure as all that Except this maybe: Carbon and hydrogen Carbon and hydrogen are we.
