Lyrics

Tarot cards said I'm already dead
Crystal ball fell down on my head
Tenderness, if I want it I pay
My true love and she threw it away

But, I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
And still be amazed

Had some money, and a hole in my pocket
Had a house, but I forgot to lock it
Took a drag ffrom a smoke that could kill me
What a drag, how the wind always chills me

But, I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
I can shine it all on
And still be amazed

I'll shine it on just like macbeth
In the face of certain death
Of a salesman or a king
And when the palm trees are on fire
I'll take my boat out on the sea

Had a face, but I never could save it
Had a kid, but I never would name it
Have a life, well thats what they called it
It's a road, but I guess I could crawl it
