When I first saw you baby Yeah you were gone So far gone The scene was set for armageddon And your grip on me was strong If you saw me yesterday You wouldn't recognize my face If you saw me yesterday Yeah you might've ran away Sister uptown, You're a metaphor for all life's grief and pain Brother downtown Such a devil, make a snake out of any man If you saw me yesterday You wouldn't recognize my face If you saw me yesterday Don't feel like crawlin' out of my cage
I used to say Another lame song and dance About a thing from my past I hope it's not boring you In the end I lost a few friends But I got up, I got up And I ran away Drugs party in 526 is where I got my kicks But where are they today? Dead and gone, the damage is done I got nothin' else to say If you saw me yesterday You wouldn't recognize my face If you saw me yesterday Yeah you might've ran away If you saw me yesterday Yeah you might've ran away
