Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes

When I see you
In your broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs
Tell me now what do I have to do
Dear lady, there are so many things that I've come to fear
With a smile or a frown
But there's a windy city in my bedroom alone
And I know I cannot tell a lie
But you know sometimes I'm a liar
But if it's alright with you
And just how sick I had become
I can feel myself growing old
When I take a bow and say goodnight

People worry, what are they worrying about today
Behind my back I can see them stare
Have we got an army, we'll teach you to act like a man
And you know I could travel all over the whole world
Vague sketch of a fantasy
Why would I lie?
But my logic tells me that it ain't never gonna happen
It's not enough
Just might never make it to a man
I don't even know why
She is starting to cry
A thousand eyes turning blue
