such a tough enchilada
filled up wit' de nada
giving what she gotta
give to get a dollar bill
used to be a limber chicken
times a been a ticking
and nows shes finger licking
pocket sticking for the man
with the money in his pocket
flying off in his red rocket
always stalking for the cocking
on his way to a better world
now she's bored, adored, depressed
her heart apart, a great big mess
when you're too tired to confess
this world can seem so dark and cruel
so she's tying off and leaving
life's street corners, cold nights, and dreaming
when you're too tired to finish grieving
this world is so dark and cruel
