Rough Silk - Mrs. Jealousy & Mr. Greed lyrics

Mrs.Jealousy and Mr.Greed Went down to the alley where the strangers meet She carried a handbag full of fears, Broken promises and fallen tears. He didn't own nothing but his clothes and a gun - for a long long time he'd been on the run - from city to city - from town to town - tryin'to steel an emperor's crown. Then they met on the wrong side of right where the truth is a lie And the rays of the first morning light are only born to die!! ( but let me tell you…. ) The seed of reality - nightbreed in a cell-us free To meet Mrs. Jealousy and Mr.Greed. When your favourite guitar's refused to play the 12th bar Whenever you smell the heat and it melts your creed - Mrs.Jealousy meets lonely Mr.Greed Mrs.Jealousy and Mr.Greed Fell in love and got happy - yes indeed! An oath in the night: "I'll be by your side!" They finally got kids and a house and a cat And while the bad turned good the good turned bad And the moral of the story - well what can I say? Life's way too short to let it ruin your day! Then they met…… The seed of reality……. The seed of reality…….
