Black silk sheets, they roll at midnight, You're trying to shock- but instead This tired man is longing for his bed, Gonna place a pillow beneath my head. You're so much more attractive, Each time you play the virgin. I'm tired of scandals in the twilight, She was acting like a whore, yeah! Is this some act? Some dour pantomime? Are you just trying to blind my wandering eye? You're so much more attractive, Each time you play the virgin. White satin sheets caress us after twilight; The china s...

You can go where you want to go, there's no need to wait for me. I can cry to you on the phone saying you must let me be, I can smile as I make my plans and think of all the places I'll see, As I try too hard to meet someone who'll set this spirit free. But how can this be? How can this be? Here I am in different guises trying to hide from you, As I dream of a distant place I'm trying to get to, Being someone else today is all I want to do, I want to set this spirit free and be wholesome thro...

I'm a night stone dreamer and I never felt like this before, When she stares at the sky and her eyes fall to the floor, When she gives me a little and always leaves me wanting more, She's a wildcat prowling; she's a leopard without a claw. I'm a fool in this scene, and I think I really like it this way, She's a star, she's a dream, she's the sun that brightens the day, She's a drug, sex machine; she's a goddess to whom I pray, I'm the rich, I'm the poor, and I guess there's nothing left to sa...

Your radio-waves don't make me laugh, Take another photograph, Take another well-earned rest, You've got a lot of time to invest. Your crazy mama's baby's crying, Your soul's a fire and it's dying, Take a leaf from my book, Before you run right out of luck. I don't get much sleep these days, It's terrible when your mind strays, Got no money, nowhere to go, Give me a coffee and I'll let you know, I've got my pen and poetry book, You're in a rut and totally stuck, Hats off to this lazy man, Get...

She said she didn't love me, She could have lied if she'd wanted. She said she wasn't happy, She could have cried if she'd wanted. She said she was a failure, She could have tried if she'd wanted. She said she's tired of living, She could have died if she'd wanted. She's being losing sleep 'cos her belly's full of pills, Promises to keep, but her closet's full of thrills. I said I was a liar, I could be true if I wanted. I said I was happy, I could be blue if I wanted. I said I was called Cra...
