E A
She ain’t as beautiful as me but she’s as beautiful as she can be
She ain’t as cold as she want but she wants it to boil
She ain’t as cold as she can be don’t you see
It takes a fast mind to figure out what’s on this whole earth this is all about
Let them ride for a while, let them wonder why
It takes a faster, faster, faster mind to figure out how
She’s selling basses down a backstreet stair, just down the alley where there’s nothing but air
And the birds took brake round 1968, she’s selling basses in a backstreet stair
She took me down when just couldn’t get ahead, she took my soul when I choosed laughter instead
Let me ride for a while, let me wonder how
It takes a faster, faster, faster mind to figure out how
She’s got a bent belt by her side, she’s got that donkey paralyzed
She’s got a cold inner wind and a ware full of sins
She’s got a garagedoor where you’ve got lies
She’s got a lifeline by her side, she’s got a woman paralyzed
She’s got a much elder husband than god’s son himself
She’s got a bagage full of hope and knives
