Lovers on earth

Lovers on earth Lyrics

deserted on friday after noon
last words hung in the air
like faint perfume

on the night before sunday
all through the flat
not a conscience was stirring
just roaches and rats
and the wallpaper clung to
the kitchen with grease
while the magnets held her
picture to the 'fridgerator-freezer
momma's cookin' chicken and
i'm not chokin' on a wishbone
overblown ego's in checkmate
sore loser, using what the gods gave out

lovers on earth can't understand
i don't fit their universal plan
i've been to the stars and back again

send me no sympathy
i'm staying down
deep in my solitude
where i can drown
on a hot summer sunday
and here in the park
i'm laughin' on grass
without a guitar
and the girl's in brooklyn
hugging all the trees
in a backyard garden
i'll never get to see
lovers on earth can't understand...

on a hot summer sunday
and here in the park
i'm laughin' on grass
without a guitar

lovers on earth can't understand
i don't fit their universal plan
i've been to the stars and back again
take me there
