Lyrics
So now with a pen in hand,
I'm supposed to figure out
the plan.
Why not just quit? After
all, isn't it
just another grain of sand.
The real reason I am sane
Is because I'm not to blame.
For you know now that we're
apart
I know it's the start
to the rest of my life in
the game.
So what do we do in the end
When you see a stranger,
your best friend?
Don't run and call the cops,
It ain't gonna make it stop.
I'll lose the last cent
that I lend.
I'll lose the last cent
that I lend.
Yeah, I'll lose the last
cent that I lend. |
Behind The Song
This song goes back to the late '70's -
early 80's.
I was doing a lot of partying and a lot
of writing - I
still have much of what I wrote, but haven't
looked
through all that stuff in years. This
is, obviously,
a rather pessimistic, downer type of tune.
Pretty
much every song I've written I can remember
what
I was thinking ... except this one. Strangely,
the
last verse is somewhat familiar nowadays.
