Well my woman blows the whistle
For the ten-fifteen to Euston
And if she once had some principles
Well now she's loosed 'em go
So's she could know how it feels
Pulling strokes and making deals
Setting spokes inside the wheels of
The Utopian Express

And then my lover she's the mother
Of my hopes and aspirations
She's the keeper of my morals
And my expectations
She's a virgin in forgiveness
And a whore in self-destruction
And a master of that moment
When you're hanging on her word

And at night I dream I'm falling
From her thirty storey window
As she pushes me and cries out
God have mercy on my soul
Then she flies into the darkness
With her make-up man beside her
And I stand helplessly watching
As the gulf gets wider
Crying please
Take your greed and leave me lone
I've enough of my own
And when Paradise's Garden
Isn't where you would be
Listen to me

For the devil is alive and well
And living on Manhattan
He's committed to a scientific
Course of action
And his legions they are many
And they answer unto no one
And their promise is as heavy
As the fog upon LA

Oh but the treadmill is for losers
Better leave your pride behind you
And go hide beneath your shadow
Lest the good Lord find you
And say Mind you, now what you doing
Have you spent all that I gave you
Are you broken now in spirit
As your minutes are in years

Or are you waiting for the scientist
To come up with an answer
And to cut away the cancer of your
Discontented mind
Well Frankenstein's in town
And I can lead you to his window
Where Cinderella dances in eternal limbo
Crying help, save yourself if you can
And your fairy tale land
And now Paradise has started
Slipping back to the sea
Listen to me
