Neon Skyline
I called up Charlie about a quarter past nine and said
"What's going on tonight?"
He said, "No plans, but I wouldn't mind holding a lighter head tonight"
I said, "Come to the skyline, I'll be washing my sins away"
Oh, he just laughed
Said, "I'll be late, you know how I can be"
I looked in my fridge, it was a dark scene, so I buttered some bread
Chewed my way out the door and walked down the street
To the neon skyline, I grabbed myself a stool at the bar
Oh, somehow Rose
Always knows just exactly what I need
She didn't ask, she just opened a cold can and set it down in front of me
I said thanks and thought about how Judy used to come here with me
But I got so tired out of her calling this our disease
'Cause I'm just fine
Sometimes I need to clear my mind, you know how that can be
Charlie walked in about a quarter past ten
And I said, "Greetings, old man"
He hung his coat on the wall and took the stool next to mine
He asked Rose for one glass of merlot and she laughed
Oh, I'm just fine
I'm wasting time
Sometimes there's no better feeling than that
"What's going on tonight?"
He said, "No plans, but I wouldn't mind holding a lighter head tonight"
I said, "Come to the skyline, I'll be washing my sins away"
Oh, he just laughed
Said, "I'll be late, you know how I can be"
I looked in my fridge, it was a dark scene, so I buttered some bread
Chewed my way out the door and walked down the street
To the neon skyline, I grabbed myself a stool at the bar
Oh, somehow Rose
Always knows just exactly what I need
She didn't ask, she just opened a cold can and set it down in front of me
I said thanks and thought about how Judy used to come here with me
But I got so tired out of her calling this our disease
'Cause I'm just fine
Sometimes I need to clear my mind, you know how that can be
Charlie walked in about a quarter past ten
And I said, "Greetings, old man"
He hung his coat on the wall and took the stool next to mine
He asked Rose for one glass of merlot and she laughed
Oh, I'm just fine
I'm wasting time
Sometimes there's no better feeling than that
