Rolling Away

Your hand is between my legs

The dog is between our bodies

As I wake up you are rolling from me

I am rolling from you

Time to join a new religion

Time to overthrow the state

Time to demand all my beliefs

Are in a new constitution

I can't stop you from cryin'

But sometimes I can lick away your tears

If you look in someone's eyes

More than two seconds now

You'd better be prepared to fight

I got too much fear and too much neglect

Of magical things

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I caught a cold and for two days straight

My ears have been plugged up

As if my body's sayin'

You don't need your ears

You don't use 'em anyway

We need more nose jobs

We need more hair relaxers

More magazines telling us

There's something wrong with your face

There's something wrong with your face

There's something wrong with your face

There's something wrong with your face

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling' away

Some wild creature has taken command

I gave him the keys

And he's stompin' through the house

He has a very busy itinerary

He does not have much time for you

I wish I could give you everything

All of me just like before

This last time together

We did everything except fight

Aw, we used to fight so good

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I see beautiful actresses

With terrible scripts

And I want to write them all

A great one, don't worry, baby

I'll write you one too

But I'll also write one for Andie Macdowell

I'd love to trade places with a dog for a day

To know what he thinks and what he feels

Does he think about life?

Does he think about God?

Or just about his next meal, like us?

So often these days eating Indian food

Passes for spirituality

I don't meditate, I don't pray

But I eat two samosas every day

Go down Moses, go down on me

I do not have the strength to fight

I only pray, you treat me gently

These are long, cold nights

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I cry every day but beauty shows up

When you least expect to find it

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I cry every day but beauty shows up

When you least expect to find it

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away

I am rolling from you

You are rolling from me

We are rolling away
