I'm only gonna let you down
I'm never gonna set you free
From the need for affection
When it's getting real late at night
The desire for attention
Better get it when the price is right
But don't steal from the neighbors
Cuz that's taking up somebody's time
With bad information of some kind
Will you draw the line?
I'm only gonna let you down
I wish that I could help you stray
From the path to destruction
Sad junction, old tired eyes
Looking out the back window
Seeing nothing but cloudy skies
No routine for pleasure
Eating 27 pieces of pie
In bored isolation
I see why you found it hard to try
