[00:35.500] Another Shirley Temple
[00:40.200] Another Caine and Able
[00:43.800] There's nothing out the window,
[00:48.700] And nothing on the table.
[00:53.300] This life is like a set list
[00:57.000] Scrawled across the nation
[01:01.290] If I miss you at the soundcheck,
[01:06.890] I'll see you at the station.
[01:11.990] There's a beast inside of me,
[01:15.390] And he's not bad company
[01:19.230] But he speaks in tongues I can never understand,
[01:28.890] He says it's one more show and a penny for the band.
[01:37.090] Keep everybody dancing,
[01:41.890] Keep everybody spending,
[01:46.000] I know I am not a good man,
[01:50.320] But I can keep pretending.
[01:53.890] I leaned in the doorway
[01:59.790] Your dress is like a dark vale,
[02:03.900] But I'm not going your way,
[02:08.000] I'm going back to Parkdale.
[02:13.780] With a bottle of Burgundy,
[02:17.900] Where she waits on the balcony,
[02:22.550] With a northern wish and a daisy in her hand,
[02:30.000] To send me all her love and a penny for the band.
[03:14.350] There's a beast inside of me,
[03:18.590] And I miss my family,
[03:24.090] All these pages and these stages made of sand,
[03:31.750] Still, it's one more show and a penny for the band,
[03:41.040] One more show and a penny for the band.
