U run it rich, that carburetor* U gotta open, open that choke. ‘Cause when you're here, the air it won't clear. And u just blowin', just blowin' smoke.
U got a blue feather bird on a golden swing. It wears a ruby tipped crown but it don't sing. U keep bringin' me gifts like it ain't no thing but I thought u said goodbye. I thought u let; let that bird fly. (there it goes)
Baby, I can't wash you clean. U got a match, well I got the gasoline. Baby, redemption ain't free. U gonna need more than u can get from me. This river's dry. Baby, can't wash u clean.
U gotta a new monkey bangin' some tambourine. It's got some big button eyes; it's made of velveteen. U just want me to know u got all you need. but am I OK alone? cause here's a monkey if I need company; (nice monkey)
U comin' over like u was clover. I'm gonna cut it with my lawnmower. U knockin' at my, my door all tangled. Your guilty conscience wrapped ‘round your ankles. I see you draggin' it ‘cross my floor now. U feelin' better. I'm feelin', I'm feelin' worse now.
