Well, well, well, well We spun like birds on fire

Right down towards the residence

And I, I took all that I desired

Even crooks have to pay the rent We swam like rats on fire

Right, right down the reservoir

We took all that we could carry

But we tried to carry more And you know, you know, you know it all went wrong

And you know, you know, you know it was all wrong We choked on street tap water

Well, I'm going to have to try the real thing

I took your laugh by the collar

And it knew not to swing Any time I tried an honest job

Well, the till had a hole in it

We laughed about paying rent

'Cause the county jails they're free And you know, you know, you know it all went wrong

And you know, you know, you know it was all wrong Deep water, deep water, senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll as you would, child

Well, deep water, deep water, senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll as you would, child Oh, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again

I said it looks it's time to use my feet again

Well, I just spent my last one hundred dollars

God, I'll pay my bill again Oh, I don't care

Oh, I just don't care Deep water, deep water, senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll shaken and shy

Deep water, deep water, senseless denial

I went down like a burned out rag of a child Well, King Rat has me on his list again

I can never be on the fence again

I found out it's all loud open like an organ and it

Talk, talk, talk, talk again He promised me that when I cheated him

But I could open my eye, well

Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky

Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again Deep water, deep water, senseless denial

I got fed like a fish full of open smiles

Blue water, deep water, senseless denial

I got fed like a fish on the cardboard smiles Well, well

What do you have to say for yourself?

I said well, well, well

I said well, well, well, well, well Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again

I hardly knew I should use my feet again

What do you have to say for yourself?

What do you have to say for yourself?
