Lonely feelin' deep inside

Find a corner where I can hide

Silent footsteps crowdin' me

Sudden darkness, but I can see



No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me

No sugar to run with me



Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow



In the silence of her mind

Quiet movements, where I can find

Grabbin' for me with her eyes

Now I'm fallin' from her skies



No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me

No sugar to run with me



Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

Da-un-do-dow



Jocko says yes, and I believe him

And we talk about the things I say

Hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him

And they're standin' in each other's way

You're driven back now to places you've been to

You're wonderin' what you're gonna find

You know you've been wrong, but it won't be long

Before you leave 'em all far behind



'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

It's the new splendid lady come to call

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

She's gettin' the law

She's gettin' the law



Jocko said no when I came back last time

It's lookin' like I lost a friend

No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'

And I'm gettin' pretty near the end

A smoke-filled room in a corner basement

The situation must be right

A bag o' goodies and a bottle o' wine

We're gonna get it on right tonight



'Cause it's the new
