1
Wine, women, and song
2
I tried them all it did not take me long
3
To figure I'd unlocked the door to happiness
4
I figured wrong with a capital "R"
5
All the baggage I brought wouldn't fit in a mid-size car
6
That's why I'm walking on eggshells down the Via Dolorosa
7
Hasn't got me any closer so far
8
Shacked up with a poet, no, it wasn't my department
9
Now I study the poetry of the studio apartment
10
Changing the cat box and baking the bread
11
I should have been paying the bills instead
12
Of paying homage to an image drawn from somebody else's head
13
Song, women, and wine
14
You can't fool all the people all the time
15
But if you're trying, if you're looking, if you're lucky
16
You can always fool a few and feel fine,
17
Is the line between shame and dread
18
One grips the lungs one brains the head
19
But either one can crush you, anyone can crush you
20
Once I dated an actor, she was working on a play
21
By opening night, we had nothing left to say to each other
22
We hit the wall, it was not resilient
23
She said that she was hungrier than I was brilliant
24
And who the hell was I to disagree?
25
Didn't you used to be someone who meant something to me?
26
Somebody who meant something to me
27
Someone who meant something to me
