You could live in the shadows You could call them your friends But then all they'll allow you Is a scantily-clad skeleton I anticipate your deep concern Believe me all my bridges burned Long ago I reveled in that loathsome deed So from upper rooms and empty tombs Love's fallen down on me So you see I do not need your sympathy Got a tongue like a serpent And you speak with a hiss And you lie through your gold teeth And your friends they're pathetic Saw you out among the patients When they took you all out for a walk You tried to grab me through the chain link But my dad says I really shouldn't talk
