Shine it on me, shine it on me
There's a cloud over my light and it's troubling me, troubling me
Such a world, such an invitation
Come as you are, come as you are
Subject to change, but we'll try not to leave any cars
Chorus:
Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away
They don't want to hear your sad story today
Everybody's busy whoever they are
Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough
But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff
Wait 'til it rains and give it away
Little girl, they just want to train you
To keep them amused, to keep them amused
They don't know, you got your match to the end of that fuse
Such a life, such a long vacation
A tourist parade, man it's a tourist parade
Im going to sleep, wake me up when you've got it made
Chorus
Little girl playin' with the moonlight Shine it on me, shine it on me There's a cloud over my light and it's troubling me, troubling me Such a world, such an invitation Come as you are, come as you are Subject to change, but we'll try not to leave any cars Chorus: Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away They don't want to hear your sad story today Everybody's busy whoever they are Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff Wait 'til it rains and give it away Little girl, they just want to train you To keep them amused, to keep them amused They don't know, you got your match to the end of that fuse Such a life, such a long vacation A tourist parade, man it's a tourist parade Im going to sleep, wake me up when you've got it made Chorus Explain Request ×
