INVITATION
Working on the green mine. Trying to make a buck.
I’m watching close to my wallet, holding tight to my luck.
I used to pray for miracles, now I pray for rain.
Don’t you know that the pleasure is worse than any of
the pain.
Invitation. One long party, that’s what it’s been.
Invitation. You’re out of my heart, you’re under my skin.
Everything this morning was animal and raw.
You know the way she was moving...There ought to be
a law.
She shattered my mind. She broke my common sense.
I ought to have my hands tied. They ought to lock me up behind a fence.
Invitation. One long party, that’s what it’s been.
Invitation. You’re out of my heart, you’re under my skin.
I won’t waste your time telling you I’m satisfied.
Because I see what goes on. We’re being taken for a
ride.
The sky’s getting crowded with particular men.
They’ve got the song and the dance, they collect the
check.
Tomorrow they do it all again.
Invitation. One long party, that’s what it’s been.
Invitation. You’re out of my heart, you’re under my skin.
