This & That
Michael Penn
3:32Here's the car you will be driving Radio works Take the tent out on arriving Detour of the road Where every sign's a carved design Stick feather on with glue Run amok upon the lawn The sun comes up and it just dawned on me One thing's clear The time's come when all of your love is drained See let's see now Dream this dream and have no mends Lose my concentration to some twister again And I point nude in shrunken suit Like all your weathermen And feeling wet and most alone Into this shelter I am thrown And found dumb At least I've got this one thing clear The time's come when all of your love is drained Fresh on the east grapevine Now that the blacktop's dried up You'll be tied up and I'll be fine Now that I've got your attention Toast to the host That's a rope and wood invention And tie me to its post There's a subject to consider 'Cause we both know each other too well Forget the plumber, call a priest The convicts have all been released And I've just screwed this up at least I think I have But left you with this one thing clear The time's come when all of your love is drained One thing's clear The time comes when all of your love is drained
