And  when those thoughts won't come
I  know that the shakes will
And  I've got no gun to my weary head
Hell  I couldn't even hold the barrel still
Everybody  loves a catch 22
Damned  if you don't, son damned if you do
Outside  it’s another day  that I gotta make it thru
 Well I know that I said that it’d be all right
 Yeah, it’s just going to take a little while
 I’m tryin to wait with the patience of Job
 It’s like busting down a prison using a broken file
 To each his own, and so on
 Think each of us might yeah we might own the wrong one
 Yeah there might have been some constant cryin’
 I’s just trying to have some fun
Mary  save me cause I'm sinkin'
Won't  you please throw me a line
Mary  save me cause I'm sinkin'
Mary  I'm runnin  out of time
 They say hope springs eternal
 Well I say eternity it springs up hope
 It can overload my fevered mind
 Then it’s gonna go looking for some ways to cope
 So I’ve found the bottle or it found me
 Tried to turn my future into history
 Can anybody hear, can anybody see
