So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyesNo better version of me I could pretend to be tonightSo deep in the swill with the most familiar of swineFor reasons wretched and divineShe blows out of nowhere on the candle of the wildLaughing away through my feeble disguiseNo other version of me I would rather be tonightAnd Lord she found me just in time'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and doneI need to be youthfully felt 'cause God I never felt youngShe's gonna save meCall me 'baby'Run her hands through my hairShe'll know me crazySoothe me dailyWell, yet she wouldn't careWe'll steal her lexusBe detectivesRide 'round picking up cluesWe'll name our children Jackie and WilsonRaise 'em on rhythm and bluesLord it'd be great to find a place to escape sometimeMe and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshineEvery version of me dead and buried in the yard outsideSit back and watch the world go byHappy to lie back watch it burn and rustWe tried to work good god it wasn't for usShe's gonna save meCall me 'baby'Run her hands through my hairShe'll know me crazySoothe me dailyWell, yet she wouldn't careWe'll steal her lexusBe detectivesRide 'round picking up cluesWe'll name our children Jackie and WilsonRaise 'em on rhythm and bluesCut clean from the dream that night let my mind resetLookin' up from a cigarette and she's already leftI start diggin' up the yard for what's left of meAnd our little vignetteFor whatever poor soul is coming nextShe's gonna save meCall me 'baby'Run her hands through my hairShe'll know me crazySoothe me dailyWell, yet she wouldn't careWe'll steal her lexusBe detectivesRide 'round picking up cluesWe'll name our children Jackie and WilsonRaise 'em on rhythm and blues
