and I've never seen
light
but I sure have seen gold
and Gladys save a place for me
on your grapevine
till I get my own honey TV show
and if I lose my Cracker Jacks at the tidal
wave
I got a place in the Pope's rubber robe
Muhammad my
friend it's time to tell the world
We both know it was a girl
back in Bethlehem
We both know it was a girl back in BethlehemHey Jupiter
Guess it's me and me

She's
ready to confess
all the things that I never thought
that she
could feel

so are you
gay

Thought we both could use a friend to run
to
and I thought I
wouldn't have to be with you
something new
and I know you
know
and sometimes you take a swim
Found your writing on my
wall
If my heart's soaking wet
Boy your boots can leave a
mess
nothing's been the same
so are you
gay
are you blue
Thought we both could use a friend to run
to
and I thought you wouldn't have to keep
with
me

had
Took my leather off the shelf

between the shower or the
bath

I'm just comin
out of the cell in my brain
Girl you got to know these
days
which side you're on
She loved a brown
man
then she built a bridge in the Sheriff's bed
She'd do
anything to save her man
You see her olives are cold
pressed
and her best friend is a sun dress
but Momma it wasn't
my bullet
I'm just comin out
of the cell in my brain
Girl you got to know these
days
which side you're on
Round

Blood can be pertty
like a delicate man
Copper to steel to a hinge that is
faltered
that let's you in let's you in let's you

And if I'm hanging on to your
shade
I guess I'm way beyond the pale
you were a sun now with your very own
devoted
satellite
Happy for you and I am
sure that I hate you
Two
sons too many too many able fires
Said you never learned to take
And if I'm
hanging on to your shade
I guess I'm way beyond the pale
You never gain weight from a
