satisfaction
is power over everything and i'm
powerless
gluttony hasn't gone out of style
since the fall of man
we scratch and claw we steal and
kill
ambitions caused when one can't
forget the magnitude of his first
high
and i'm thinkin' again
trying to unravel the mystery of
existing so perplexing
i'm not missing anything
i don't think
constantly listening and looking
and feeling and i'm still
just as lost as a human can be
and i'm thinkin' again
all i can do is let it happen to
me
and i'm thinkin' again
i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
looking for things to do to pass
the time between birth
and becoming part of the earth
working playing and laying
staring comparing
that over there to this
i'm blaming those in charge cuz
after all there's nothing else to
do
money pays for things that don't
really belong to you
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
a velvet tablecloth a pack of
viceroys a bottle of gin
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm drinkin' again
a deck of cards playing solitaire
birds everywhere in a park on a
bench
i smell of an aweful stench
i am a loser and i'm all alone i
sit in the bathroom and thump my
bone
i got 25 cents to my name a bag
of laundry who's to blame
i haven't worked in 16 days
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm drinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
and i'm thinkin' again
