Bài hát Althea Báo Lỗi

I told Althea I was feeling lost

Lacking in some direction

Althea told me upon scrutiny

my back might need protection


I told Althea that treachery

was tearin me limb from limb

Althea told me: now cool down boy -

settle back easy Jim


You may be Saturday's child all grown

moving with a pinch of grace

You may be a clown in the burying ground

or just another pretty face

You may be the fate of Ophelia

sleeping and perchance to dream -

honest to the point of recklessness

self centered to the extreme


Ain't nobody messin with you but you

your friends are getting most concerned -

loose with the truth

maybe it's your fire

but baby...don't get burned

When the smoke has cleared, she said,

that's what she said to me:

You're gonna want a bed to lay your head

and a little sympathy


There are things you can replace

and others you cannot

The time has come to weigh those things

this space is getting hot -

you know this space is getting hot


I told Althea

I'm a roving sign -

that I was born to be a bachelor -

Althea told me: Ok that's fine -

So now I'm out trying to catch her


Can't talk to me without talking to you

We're guilty of the same old thing

Talking a lot about less and less

And forgetting the love we bring
