Another night of maybe and almost
Abandoning a land of passin' ghosts

Just a lot of sad people forgive them Lord
They don't care what they do
Or who they do it to
At the dog and pony show

They don't wanna know

To think I could have stayed home
Instead of watching this ugly lust and ordinary dirt
But no one cares, so nobody gets hurt

Just a lot of sad people forgive them Lord
They don't care who they do
Or what it does to you
At the dog and pony show
They don't wanna know
They're doing some blow

They all stand in line and take their chances
Roping all their robot dances
Dying to get off
There's a lot of pretty girls here looking tight
They're not good girls
But they're good for the night
They're telling me to buzz off
Well that's okay, cause I never liked them anyway

It's no place for a mongrel mutt like me
Mating rights go to the best of breed

Just a lot of sad people
Caught in between
Desire and despair
I guess I'll see you there
At the lost and lonely
Dog and pony show

They don't wanna know
They don't wanna know
They don't wanna know
So afraid and alone
