GIVE US THE SHORT VERSION
I'LL NEED A DICTIONARY ANYWAY
AIRMAIL LATER DESCRIPTIONS
A DETAILED LIST OF YOUR COMPLAINTS
STAYING ON IN SUCH A WASTELAND
HAS ALWAYS BEEN A CHORE
I'M QUITE ADEPT AT CONTORTIONS
BUT MORE IS NOT WORTH STAYING FOR
SPARE ME THOSE LONG LASHES
I KNOW WHAT'S UNDERNERATH THAT PAINT
PREDICTIONS MIGHT BE GOOD FOR THE WEATHER
BUT YOUR CURSES NEVER WORKED ANYWAY
NOT ONE LITTLE BIT OF INSPIRATIONN
STAYING ON WOULD BE A MISTAKE
WELL SOME MIGHT PAY TO COME AND SEE YOU
I'M GOING TO BE THE ONE TO GET AWAY
RED ROSE WITHERED BOUQUET
I'M GOING TO BE THE ONE TO QUESTION LOGIC
NO MATTER WHAT THE OTHER MEN SAY
I KNOW WHAT'S LURKING THERE AND HIDING
YOU COULD SAY I LEARNED IT ALL THE HARD WAY
BUT THE LESSONS BEST REMEMBERED
ARE PERHAPS THE ONES SELF MADE
BUT THE ONE WISH I WISH I NEVER EVER WISHED
IS THE WISH THAT GOT ME INTO THIS PLACE
RED ROSE WITHERED BOUQUET 2X
FOLLOW MY NOSE FROM THIS DANGER
AND WHAT ONCE USED TO FASCINATE
NOTHING LEFT TO HOLD IT TOGETHER
NOT ONE LITTLE REASON TO STAY
I REMEMBER ONCE WHAT WAS PLEASURE
HAS NOW BECOME A BORE
I REMEMBER ONCE WHAT LOVE WAS
AND NOW IS NO MORE
RED ROSE WITHERED BOUQUET
