Midnight to Stevens - Outtake
I searched through the drinkers
Each propped over his glass
I ran through each bar
'Til I found Guy at last
Guy, you've been to the doctor
No, I don't think it wise
Took one of his pills
Boiled the blood in my eyes
When you played the master mix
To the company man
Took three million worldwide
To make him understand
You don't work for peanuts
But they'll push you too
It's that company trick
We're all jumping through
Bet you ain't had no food now
Since you last went to sleep
The wild seed that was sowed
Will take forever to reap
What days and nights though?
Rocking out of ham yard
Oh, skip that fandango
Bring the blues back down hard
Though Chuck, you never admit it
At the door of the jail
There stood Guy Stevens
And he was waving the bail
Guy, you've finished the booze
And we've run out of speed
But the wild side of life
It's the one that we need
Each propped over his glass
I ran through each bar
'Til I found Guy at last
Guy, you've been to the doctor
No, I don't think it wise
Took one of his pills
Boiled the blood in my eyes
When you played the master mix
To the company man
Took three million worldwide
To make him understand
You don't work for peanuts
But they'll push you too
It's that company trick
We're all jumping through
Bet you ain't had no food now
Since you last went to sleep
The wild seed that was sowed
Will take forever to reap
What days and nights though?
Rocking out of ham yard
Oh, skip that fandango
Bring the blues back down hard
Though Chuck, you never admit it
At the door of the jail
There stood Guy Stevens
And he was waving the bail
Guy, you've finished the booze
And we've run out of speed
But the wild side of life
It's the one that we need
