Riding away on your little white horse Remember yourself as a poor, clueless kid Blown out and thrown out and groping for your bid Laid out flat in the back of your mind Watching your own sorry self from behind
Riding away on your little white horse You stare down at your legs Waiting for it to stop Called out and balled out by some self-appointed cop Blah blah blah said the tongue to the ear And so you rise to your feet Open up your eye Just in time to see the last in line pass you by Dig in your heels, take the bull by the horn Cold and naked as the day you were born
Riding away on your little white horse Grow up settle down Make payments on a home Leave little messages on someone or another's phone
If it's not too loud, then you're not too old Trust in your bluff and you might never have to fold So now you're ready to die Oh what's the hurry? You're sure enough deaf soon anyway you don't have to worry
Exiting a dream, suspended in midair Halfway between somewhere and nowhere Forget their agendas There are numbers and they're stacked The bastards and buggers, and the snakes and the rats Remember yourself before they've got it through your skull With their anesthesia, bombast, and bull Riding away on your little white horse
