Lyric Sheets
LIVE from Psycho Babylon
Baby boomer born again
songstress / chanteuse
airs her pain
pensive windswept
in the rain
vacant on the CD cover
lost her mind
or lost her lover
press RECORD
and leave it on
open like a telethon
phone the shrink
and sing the song
Psycho Babylon, you know?
where the messed up
pop stars go
and comedians
spend their money
re-emerging
not as funny
out they come
new book / CD
My Psychologist and Me
kicking ass at 43
with the aid of therapy
Take the cure
it's not a con
life's a couch
to lie upon
call the press
and sing the song
and on and on
and on and on
