Beauty and Brains

Beauty and brains, beauty and brains
Can't complain when you've got beauty and brains
But the beauty's going to fade
And the brain's going to rot someday
Money and time, money and time
Trade one for the other, money and time
Firsts and seconds, nickels and rhymes
This is how the story goes
This is how the reason flows
Waiting 'till the moral shows
And it never does

This is how the beat goes on
From a place I've never gone
Don't look now but here's the dawn
And I ain't got my sunglasses on

Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love
Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love

Later or now later or now
What a hard choice, later or now
I've got to get my shit together but I don't know how
Midnight and noon the sun and the moon
I know the answer's coming soon
Weaving pain into a pretty tune

This is how the story goes
This is how the reason flows
Waiting 'till the moral shows
And it never does

This is how the beat goes on
From a place I've never gone
Don't look now but here's the dawn
And I ain't got my sunglasses on

Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love
Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love

Glowing signs and passing phases
Locked up drawers and open-ended mazes

Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love
Wipe away the tears baby
Wipe away the tears my love
