Brenda pa** the brandy to me one more time It must have dropped another ten degrees Wind's been screaming like a battered woman it's a storm like i've never seen before and life makes you walk a thin grey line Between the living and the dead Haven't we been waiting all our lives To hear the angels sing inside our heads Brenda pa** the book to me one more time I can't recall the chapter or the verse I guess we shouldn't really be surprised I guess we should expect the worst It was another black friday when the bottom dropped out In a wall street I chanced to find a pearl I was terminally sick at the mayo clinic When I met this doctor with a cure Now there's a witness in the courtroom Of a heart in disarray And I believe his testimonial I would die for it this day While the light fades from your eyes Brenda I am in a miserable state I wanna hold on to something strong Trying to regain some innocence It's been going going going going gone And I feel just like an orphan Knocking on the doors of a million homes Sure I feel your arms around me But it still don't mean I don't feel alone
