Title: Twist In My Sobriety



All God's children need travelling shoes


Drive your problems from here


All good people read good books




I hear you talk girl





In the morning I wipe my brow


Wipe the miles away


I like to think I can be so willed




I'll never hear you


















We just poked a little pie


For the fun people had at night


Late at night don't need hostility


The timid smile and pause to free



I don't care about their different thoughts


Different thoughts are good for me


Up in arms and chaste and whole


All God's children took their toll
















Cup of tea, take time to think, yea


Time to risk a life, a life, a life


Sweet and handsome


Soft and porky


You pig out 'til you've seen the light


Pig out 'til you've seen the light



Half the people read the papers


Read them good and well


Pretty people, nervous people


People have got to sell


News you have to sell
