Back Down the Mountain
Would you have guessed
From this tarot card reading
That even at best
I can be quite misleading
I like to impress
Say what are you reading?
I'd like to confess
To what I'm needing
Wake me up
If you're ever coming round
Shake me up
Rub this tired body down
I wouldn't leave
For love nor money
Fear nor fun
I'm not one
For wasting my time
On those spun out sinners
While my teeth go brown
And my hair gets thinner
Wake me up
If you're ever coming round
Shake me up
Rub this tired body down
Pack my case with cigarettes
And fresh pairs of socks
Some books I won't read
And a couple of rocks
And head back towards a border
I should never have crossed
That was a line
I should never have crossed
Wake me up
Right before we get back down
Shake me up
Rub this lonely body down
From this tarot card reading
That even at best
I can be quite misleading
I like to impress
Say what are you reading?
I'd like to confess
To what I'm needing
Wake me up
If you're ever coming round
Shake me up
Rub this tired body down
I wouldn't leave
For love nor money
Fear nor fun
I'm not one
For wasting my time
On those spun out sinners
While my teeth go brown
And my hair gets thinner
Wake me up
If you're ever coming round
Shake me up
Rub this tired body down
Pack my case with cigarettes
And fresh pairs of socks
Some books I won't read
And a couple of rocks
And head back towards a border
I should never have crossed
That was a line
I should never have crossed
Wake me up
Right before we get back down
Shake me up
Rub this lonely body down
