etched

the

face

of

a

stop-

On

the

of

a

rain-

drop

And

did

a

swap

for

the

sand

in

an

hour-

heard

I

heard

the

pi-

woke

me

up

this

mor-

You

look

like

you've

been

for

break-

fast

at

the

Heart-

break

Ho-

And

sat

in

the

back

booth

by

the

pamp-

hlets

and

the

li-

tera-

ture

on

how

to

lose

Your

wai-

tress

was

mi-

se-

ra-

ble

and

so

was

your

food

If

you're

gon-

na

try

walk

on

wa-

make

sure

you

wear

your

com-

When

Of
