Land's Edge - 2007 Remaster

Lyrics

Ah don't touch that dial
 Here's a word about my ex-girlfriend
 Towards the end conflict off and on
 And I told her one night, "Honey every time we fight
 I'll write a verse to this song"
 Well, things got bad and things got worse
 Still I struggled on
 So sit back and get all comfortable
 'Cause this little tunes six fuckin' hours long
 And every journey's got destinations
 Which the traveler can't expect
 So how's that I'm always winding up
 Down here at land's edge?
 Now if love is blind why did her stockings
 Always look so cool?
 Now I know I was paying attention
 But somehow I got fooled
 Well I gave her seven children
 And a twelve room uptown shack
 And when it all was over
 Took a dozen lawyers
 To get half back
 But I already got me a new gal to ruin my life
 And she might just yet,
 So I'm helping her find an apartment
 Down here at land's edge
 Now take the traveler and the tourist
 The essential difference is
 The traveler don't know where he's goin'
 And the tourist don't know where he is
 Small world till they lose your luggage, tho'
 Take the stripper who lives next door
 You'd swear this kid was 21 goin' on 44
 But luckily that ain't how she sees it
 Got a new tattoo that says:
 "when I die, send the body to heaven,
 Lost the rest at land's edge"
