Ian Gillan - A Day Late And A Dollar Short lyrics

Once i tried to eat myself alive I wanted to know what i was like inside In the morning every day of my life Face in my mirror seems so surprised Once i tried to set myself on fire I was burning with desire Voice of reason whispers in my ear I see the light but i cannot hear Naked dancers chanting in the night A day late and a dollar short that's what she said to me Never was and i never will be what you're going to be A day late and a dollar short it's what my momma said Wild dreams and empty thoughts going through your head A day late and a dollar short A day late and a dollar short You're dreaming A day late and a dollar short Momma said get back to your bed A day late and a dollar short It's what she said to me
