Authority

Lyrics

She says it's OK
 The rent just went on entertainment
 But who's gonna say
 It's just not my day
 She's got enough stuff to get real tough
 Well she's the girl who plays
 The holiday is over, the honeymoon is over
 The garden's overgrown
 The trust is rusted, the link's been busted
 The seeds are sown
 The sounds of my breath, what do you expect
 Echo in the hall
 The ghost of the picture still haunts the master
 Bedroom mirror wall
 I suppose you'd say she made a fool of me
 Oh, but she has authority
 It used to be fine
 Days full of music, nights full of music
 Music all the time
 Invisible light
 I try my best but I transgressed
 It used to be fine
 The chances are used up, the finances used up
 The energy is low
 Letters are returned, lovers are spurned
 Deliver quite a blow
 The signs of disaster, I wouldn't put it past her
 The dagger's in the dark
 The stale perfume in her old room
 Heart of a shark
 I suppose you'd say she made a slave of me
 Oh, but she has authority
 I guess that that's all
 The curtain comes down and the circus leaves town
 The leaves begin to fall
 I guess that that's it
 The world keeps spinning, people keep sinning
 And all the rest is just bullshit
 The shadow's getting longer, the widow's gettin' younger
 The cup doth overflow
 The luxury of pity, babe this wasn't pretty
 On with the show
 Life is a tangle, a one night triangle
 Some tangle of life limbs (?)
 You sleep like a baby precious as a ruby
 Goodbye everything
 I suppose you'd say she made a slave of me
 Oh, but she had authority
