T Bone Burnett - East Of East lyrics

I was standing in the lobby Counting all the ladies Pa**ing the palm trees I was taking chances Not to make them nervous Ladies are my business The know that they can trust me I forgive them instantly I am the absent minded priest Ladies have their problems Living on a space stage Acting out a new rage The battle of the s**es It's just the same in Egypt It's just the same in Texas It starts in the heart Then it ends in sin Nothing's really changed Even east of east of Eden
