Save It For Tomorrow (Parts 1 & 2)

He's walking out to the grocery store
Only buys food that's good and natural
Helps a lady carry a bag then he smiles at a baby
See the way he holds his gun
True and blue yeah real original
Maybe you can hear him playing on your radio
He's been slowing down but he's gonna pick it up
He just needs a little luck
A little peace and quiet no one calling his bluff
And he wonders if he's even still enjoying this stuff
He says why do I bother man it's just so tough
And there's so many things that I want and I can't get enough
I am dreaming of some Spanish style that I know is wild
Yes I know how it feels to be spinning around up on the wheels child
I am watching television in the temple of modern indecision
Chewing on a piece of pie and getting wise to my position
Hey! save it for tomorrow if you're feeling strange
Hey! Save it for the rain, Mr. Payne
Good luck takes a whole lot of wise meditation
Understanding that nothing exists that's beyond explanation
Believing in something is always a shame and so the thing is to blame
You read a lot of big books that take you away
but you're always the same
Hey! Save it for tomorrow if the sunshine stays
Hey! Save it for the rain, Mr. Payne
I better watch out or I could become another tragedy
Just a poor boy cowering lost in his great secret symphony
He's always out drinking
and he's always in thinking but it's sinking in
And everyone mentions that he has good intentions
but he's far too thin
Hey! Save it for tomorrow down the flowery lane
Hey! Save it for the rain, Mr. Payne
Oh yes I know it'll take the postman all night
if he's gonna come around twice
And all the ladies say "well hey, that's what you get for acting nice"
You're a real go getter and a real bed wetter yeah good for you, Jim
But it's only the fool who believes
that his city's looking out for him
Hey! Save it for tomorrow let the night remain
Hey! Save it for the rain, Mr. Payne
Well there's so many people with something to say
I think I'll kick em all down
It's all kaleidoscope, it's the brand new you out on the new town
Fighting, feeling, crying, sighing, trying to hold on
To a different perspective after you've rejected every other one
Hey! Save it for tomorrow, let the music play
Hey! Save it for the rain, Mr. Payne
Hey! Save it for tomorrow, Hey!
