I asked you for a ride

I was lonely

And hoping to see you before i left town

You said, "i'm sorry, i'd like to,

If only i had had the time ...

Maybe next time around."



And i walked for miles

And carried my bags

On streets with no sidewalks

In search of a ride

It was me and a baby ruth

A chewy chunk of chocolate truth

And here from the bus,

I would like to say thanks

Thank you.



I had imagined a breakfast of coffee and muffins

Maybe some cinnamon toast

But if i believed i would gain your attendance

I could have provided the holy host



And i walked for miles

In search of a ride

On streets with no sidewalks

And carried my bags

It was me and a baby ruth

A chewy chunk of chocolate truth

And here from the bus,

I'd just like to say thanks

Thank you.

Thanks a lot.

Thank you.

Not.



Two seats behind me, reclining

An angel is peering at me now from under a book

She catches me staring and smiles to the window

Again, i'm in love and with only a look

And it must be it's true, i am free

And last night i burned, you know who spoke to me

Say "welcome the solitude, it's your family tree"

And you would have been only a heaven



At noon i will fly to my city, my prison

And you will be forever gone from my life

And soon i'll deny any lingering vision

Of me in some catalogue and you as my wife



'cause i walked for miles

I in search of a ride

On streets with no sidewalks

And steel muddy banks

It was me and a baby ruth

A chewy chunk of chocolate truth

And here from the bus,

I'd just like to say thanks

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks a lot.

Thank you.



I was walking down the road

Carrying in a heavy load

Feeling and believing that i might have been a prince through it

But no ...



... had all i can use of your silly teaching

Had all i can use of your silly preaching

And here's the news i'll make it on my wiles



All i really need is some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size



It must be nice to be boy genius

In your paradise you got the only penis

I know it's true i can't hypotheticalise



All i really need is some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size, nine, five

Shoes my size



I don't do much in the way of praying

And i'm out of touch with religious sayings

I think your cross is just a little too wide



All i really need is some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size

Some shoes my size, nine, five,

Double wide, you provide ...
