Bus stop rat bag, ha ha charade you are. You fucked up old hag, ha ha charade you are. You radiate cold shafts of broken glass. You’re nearly a good laugh, almost worth a quick grin. You like the feel of steel, you’re hot stuff with a hat pin, And good fun with a handgun. You’re nearly a laugh, you’re nearly a laugh, But you’re really a cry. ---

Morning again, the sun is probably shining, Someone is probably finding his way. Morning again, somebody else’s day. ---

There is a voice calling for me There is a light coming down on me There is a doubt that is clearing There is a day that is dawning There is a wound that is healing There is a season waiting for me There is a road that is turning There is a fire still burning A sickness in me Constant pace towards the end The need is stronger This time the need is deeper [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/speak-to-me-in-succinct-song-lyrics/691666.md?page=323) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/speak-to-me-in-succinct-song-lyrics/691666.md?page=325)
