Authority lyrics

She says it s ok
The rat just burned an end to ten men but
Who s gonna say
It s just not my day
She s got enough stuff to get me tough and
She s not gonna play
   The holiday is over
   The honeymoon is over
   The garden s overgrown
   The trust is rusted
   The rake s been busted
   The seeds are sown
   The signs on your breath
   What do you expect
   Echo in the hall
   The ghost of a picture
   Still haunts the monster
   Bedroom mirror broke
     I suppose you ll 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 lies
I tried my best but I transgressed it
Used to be fine
   Chances are used up
   Finances used up
   Energy is low
   Letters are returned
   Lovers are spurned
   Deliver quite a blow
   The signs are disaster
   I wouldn t put it past her
   The diver s in the dark
   The stale perfume
   In her old room
   Hell of a shock
     I suppose you ll say she made a fool of me
     Oh, but she has authority
I guess that that s old
The curtain comes down the circus leaves town
And leaves the game to fold
I guess that I think
The world keeps spinnin , people keep sinnin
All the rest is just bullshit
   The shadow s getting longer
   The widow s getting younger
   The cup doth overflow
   The luxury of painted
   Babies in a crib
   On with the show
   Life is a tangle
   Of one-night triangles
   The tangle of life leaps
   You sleep like a baby
   You re precious as a ruby
   Goodbye, everything
     I suppose you ll say she made a fool of me
     Oh, but she has authority
