Richard Shindell Confession
I really like this counter Doc
So much more discreet
It's nice you've made a place here
Where the customer is free
To talk about a problem
With a bit more privacy
Better service
Reminds me of confession
When I used to go to Church
I used to go to therapy
But who needs all that work?
The one is too much reading
The other, too much pain
But now I'm happy
[Chorus:]
So hey Doc, how's about a refill?
Hey Doc, the pretty little blue pill?
Hey Doc, how's about a refill?
Are you following the market, Doc?
Everybody's flush.
You should go down to the trading floor,
It's such an awesome rush.
But everyone's a predator
So I've gotta keep my edge
Can you help me?
[Chorus]
Sometimes I lie awake at night
Sometimes I look up at the stars
Sometimes I cry, I don't know why.
I guess I should be riding high
The bears are all extinct
I pity all the suckers
Who take too much time to think
I could make a quarter million
Just lyin' in my sleep
Time is money
Can ya help me?
Sometimes I get down on my knees
Sometimes I wish that I could pray
Sometimes I cry I don't know why
[Chorus]
[Chorus overlapping with:]
Sometimes I lie awake at night
Sometimes I look up at the stars
Sometimes I get down on my knees
Sometimes I wish that I could pray
But I just don't know what to say
Sometimes I cry I don't know why
Sometimes I cry I don't know why.
