By now I'm almost there
That being the place
Where I can get somewhere
I'm no young man
But I ain't no square
Well by now
I would have thought
You'd have got somewhere
Well I'm doing my best you
Know it's hard out there
DOING YOUR BEST
tO BE fRED ASTAIRE
dANCING WHILE SHE'S SPARKLIN'
oFF IN THE clouded lair
Well, by now I'd have thought
You'd have got somewhere
So what do you want of me
Mr spoon
With your head shining in photography
Of the silver moon
And your legs dipped in the iodine
Of an ionized ocean
Oh where is the irony
In all this emotion?
I'd have thought by now
You'd have got somewhere
I saw you coming up the dirty track
Your wheels were dirty like a cigarette ash
I knew in your coming
There was no going back
It was like the bees humming
Over honey like cash
Now Don't you mistake me
I know where you're from
I've been there myself
I once was a bum
But I don't like your kind
Sniffin' around
So why don't you crawl back under
The rock you've come from
