Tonight

That's the road

it's over there

and leading down to nowhere.

This is the age when you're allowed

to have your own care

If you were half so bright

you'd plan your life ahead

instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed.

I'll be over tonight

if you say you might

I'll be over tonight

need to put you right.

I'm so used to waiting that's entirely

your decision don't be restricted

by the weightless views you're given

if you were half so bright you fight them

from the head

instead of saving 'til your young heart is dead.

I'll be over tonight...

well I know what you wrote in your overcoat

but don't want to take it too far

oh I think you won't but I know that you don't

you always say that you are

Never let the riches that my endless need will give you

show some concern for all the love

that you must live through

if you were half so bright

you'd plan your life ahead

instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed.
