Everything you ever wanted
Is passing with the driving rain
I died like a salamander
On
my heart heavy like a chain
I been waiting here at the Uptown theater
And it's all becoming
clear that
Refrain:
It's too much head
And not much heart
But if you think
about the end
It might never get started
It's a black romance
But it's one more
chance
And if you fight out of spite
You know that just ain't right
Everyone you
ever cared for
Is staying at the big hotel
I'm in the lobby with my hobby
And my rags
and my bags
And the desk man rings a bell
