[Verse 2] The smoke will find you a choker that matches your coat, not fit to be tied The mirror it makes it all clearer as you stand alone and can't see your behind Yea They tried to tell me I could say that nobody could believe this Well they tried to tell me I could say nobody could achieve this The way you stayed of, locked away of Keeping the flame for yourself The way you stayed off, pushing' the blame of, reaping the fame for yourself [Verse 3] Oh well, it's a, it's a, dead end It's a dead end Oh, it's a dead end lonely day Say it's a dead end It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a dead end day It's a dead end oh day And it's a long way, a long way down Hey well it's a long way, a long way down [Verse 4] Change is a coming a baby Don't be startled lady Every once in a while they do it again You gonna shake it, shake it You know you wanna take it Back to where you once belonged Back beneath the sheets and between the pillow cases And the snake he races out and he, he tangles into your hair Funny the fruits you choose Oh the time you take, the words you loose And it all goes back to rotation over the back of your hand Oh the back of your hand, oh the back of your hand Oh the map is your hand It's the back of your hand, the back of your hand Say the back of your hand, oh the map is your hand, it's the back of your hand [Verse 5] Stop whining all the time Don't you find a little secret to yourself always saved your life Stop listening to the words that you've heard No one else but yourself will agree with you more That it's a long, long way It's a long, long way And it's a long, long way, a long way down Hey, and it's a long way down And it's a lo- oh- oh- ng way down Hey, hey, hey, and it's a long, long, long, long way down Say say, [SCATS] And it's a lo- oh- oh- ng way down, hey and it's a long way down It's a dead end It's a dead end oh It's a dead end lonely day It's a, it's a dead end It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a dead end day It's a dead end oh day
