Kiss of Death

Post by audiofool » Tue Sep 13, 2011 8:19 am

Down to my last silver dollar
I really shouldn't complain
wearing your ring around the collar
and I'm punch drunk from the pain

it's Tuesday now I'm ready to learn
about the hell we've yet to pay
no refunds and no return
happiness a catastrophe away

I'll keep up appearances
I hope you can make the show
we'll pitch our tent in fresh cement
fallen angels in the snow

up to my neck in paperwork
you're drowning in despair
I'm sorry I was such a jerk
it's not like me to care

there's a footnote at page fifty-six
below the coffee stain
dig in your heels and get your licks
before the last haunting refrain

one more chance to lose it all
before the final bell
to look the part at least a start
to kiss and never tell.
