Come now and Listen Babe
      I gotta reason why I behave
      Like a child with a light in its eyes
      Runnin' naked on a cold winters night.

      I'm like a pigeon that's spreading its wings
      To fly away to better things.
      Like a hammer that has made a dent
      In every little single cent you've spent.

      Now I know I'm always right,
      That's a thought that never even crossed my mind.
      Don't touch me there; I gotta be pure
      So smack that hand and read this verse.
      So I wrecked your life, what the heck
      My new found faith will pay by check.

      So this is me and that's my song
      And I guess you can see we don't get along.
      I've shut the door on what we had
      So now she can sleep with her dear ole dad
      My eyes are dry and my hands are clean
      And I can't beleive all the things I've seen.
