It's been a long time
Since I got back in line
With every lonely face
In every lonely place
But all my excuses of all my abuses
And how many uses can you take
They're in every town
They all fool around
The same old muses that I make
It's automatic
I'm falling, crawling
Too far, too low
And darling, I'm in
I'm gone, let's go
It's been a long time
Since I got back in line
With every simple toy
That just left me annoyed
I'm one hundred down
And I'm stumbling around
You've got a smile
That I'm renting now
In 17 days, the American way
Don't know what to say but I know how
It's automatic
I'm falling, crawling
Too far, too low
And darling, I'm in
I'm gone, let's go
I can't picture it all
From where I'm coming
Now that everything's so cold
