Some summers in the evening after 6 or so |
|
I walk on down the hill |
|
And maybe buy a beer |
|
I think about my friends |
|
Sometimes I wish they lived out here |
|
But they wouldn't dig this town |
|
No, they wouldn't dig this town |
|
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress |
|
Try not to think about it anymore |
|
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress |
|
Anymore |
|
No, not anymore, oh |
|
Alice, the world is full of ugly things |
|
That you can't change |
|
Pretend it's not that way |
|
It's my idea of faith |
|
You can blow it off |
|
And say there's good in nearly everyone |
|
Just give them all a chance |
|
Now let's give them all a chance |
|
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress |
|
Try not to think about it anymore |
|
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress |
|
Anymore |
|
No, not anymore, oh |
|
No, it didn't work out |
|
No, it didn't work out the way we thought it would |
|
No, it didn't work out |
|
(An arranged marriage is not so good) |
|
Thank God it's you |
|
You know, your timing is impeccable |
|
And I'm not fooling you |
|
I don't know what to do |
|
Some dude just knocked me cold |
|
And left me on the sidewalk |
|
Took everything I had |
|
And everything I had |
|
Try not to think about it, Alice Childress |
|
Try not to think about it anymore |
|
It's getting late where you are, Alice Childress |
|
Anymore |
|
No, not anymore |
|
Anymore |
|
No, not anymore |
