“There must be some way out of here,” said the joker to the thief “There’s too much confusion, I can’t get no relief Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth None of them along the line know what any of it is worth”
“No reason to get excited,” the thief, he kindly spoke “There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke But you and I, we’ve been through that, and this is not our fate So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late”
All along the watchtower, princes kept the view While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl
When the truth is found to be lies
And all the joy within you dies
Don’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
Love, love
When the garden flowers, baby are dead, yes and
Your mind, your mind is so full of red
Don’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
Your eyes, I say your eyes may look like his
Yeah, but in your head, baby
I’m afraid you don’t know where it is
Don’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
Tears are running down
They’re all running down your breast
And your friends, baby
They treat you like a guest
Don’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

She’s got everything she needs, She’s an artist, she don’t look back. She’s got everything she needs, She’s an artist, she don’t look back. She can take the dark out of the nighttime And paint the daytime black
You will start out standing Proud to steal her anything she sees. You will start out standing Proud to steal her anything she sees. But you will wind up peeking through her keyhole Down upon your knees.
She never stumbles, She’s got no place to fall. She never stumbles, She’s got no place to fall. She’s nobody’s child, The Law can’t touch her at all.
She wears an Egyptian ring That sparkles before she speaks. She wears an Egyptian ring That sparkles before she speaks. She’s a hypnotist collector, You are a walking antique.
Bow down to her on Sunday, Salute her when her birthday comes. Bow down to her on Sunday, Salute her when her birthday comes. For Halloween give her a trumpet And for Christmas, buy her a drum
If your mem’ry serves you well, I was goin’ to confiscate your lace, And wrap it up in a sailor’s knot And hide it in your case. If I knew for sure that it was yours . . . But it was oh so hard to tell. But you knew that we would meet again, If your mem’ry serves you well.
This wheel’s on fire, Rolling down the road, Best notify my next of kin, This wheel shall explode!
If your mem’ry serves you well, You’ll remember you’re the one That called on me to call on them To get you your favors done. And after ev’ry plan had failed And there was nothing more to tell, You knew that we would meet again, If your mem’ry served you well.
This wheel’s on fire, Rolling down the road, Best notify my next of kin, This wheel shall explode!
