lyrics

If you find your luck is changing for the worse and you can't find your bed
You must listen very carefully to all the things she leaves unsaid
Don't give me any advice cause I need it like a hole in the head
This world is going all to hell and I'm already two steps ahead

When you're slipping down the steep and rocky road with your shoes worn to the sole
And you drop onto your ass because you think that it will ease your fall
But you’re picking up speed and you’re heading for a smooth brick wall
And all your precious little victories they don't seem to matter now at all

California used to seem like paradise when you saw it on TV
But the sand gets into all your dirty clothes when you’re sleeping rough on Venice beach
That’s the kind of guy you’re dealing, the one who is always out of reach
And you look lovely in your pink dress though you still insist to me that it's peach

Pretty soon the cops will find out where I live and be breaking down my door
They got a lot of unsolved crimes that someone somewhere has to answer for
And if you want to throw the book at me, go ahead cause I ain't running anymore
I hear the judge is pretty fair unless you've been up in front of him before
