She says it's OK The rent just went on entertainment But who's gonna say It's just not my day She's got enough stuff to get real tough Well she's the girl who plays The holiday is over, the honeymoon is over The garden's overgrown The trust is rusted, the link's been busted The seeds are sown The sounds of my breath, what do you expect Echo in the hall The ghost of the picture still haunts the master Bedroom mirror wall
I suppose you'd say she made a fool of me Oh, but she has authority
It used to be fine Days full of music, nights full of music Music all the time Invisible light I try my best but I transgressed It used to be fine The chances are used up, the finances used up The energy is low Letters are returned, lovers are spurned Deliver quite a blow The signs of disaster, I wouldn't put it past her The dagger's in the dark The stale perfume in her old room Heart of a shark
I suppose you'd say she made a slave of me Oh, but she has authority
I guess that that's all The curtain comes down and the circus leaves town The leaves begin to fall I guess that that's it The world keeps spinning, people keep sinning And all the rest is just bullshit The shadow's getting longer, the widow's gettin' younger The cup doth overflow The luxury of pity, babe this wasn't pretty On with the show Life is a tangle, a one night triangle Some tangle of life limbs (??) You sleep like a baby precious as a ruby Goodbye everything
I suppose you'd say she made a slave of me Oh, but she had authority
