woman:
When the telegraph melts
And its still ringing your name
When your shoes got holes in them
And the sidewalks not the same
And youre falling down
Then you can think about your mother
You can think about your friends
But you cant blame me for not being around
You know I told you long ago
Before you grew so old
That I wasnt meant for claws falling on my face
I see you knew it was a jungle
I was a woman had a place to go
If you cant come with me then I just dont know
But Im wondering about your humor
You know I didnt mind
When you laughed in my face
You know I didnt mind
When you stood on my head
And then I turned the tables around
Jandek:
I thought it just another day
I thought you saw it my way
But to my surprise
Theres a difference in your eyes
woman:
I find it hard to find you
Say you want an ashtray
Say you think you found a way
Well, you can joke about me baby
You can say my name in vain
