I JUST WANT TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO
I WANTED EVERYTHING

SHE'S THE ONE
BAD BRAIN
IT'S A LONG WAY BACK

Bringing the groceries up
Not much of a salary
No tip for the delivery
I wanted...
[ E G D E ]

Involved in a robbery
There's money in the supermarket
And I'm goin' in after it
I wanted...

It was the face of love, and I knew

And still it begins, needles and pins
