 Progresison:
never  could  be still for long
 and i could never hold  a job
 coupled with a  weakness for cocaine and liquor
 not much  you can do for love
 when i met you  i broke the mold
 i fell apart  and combed  my hair
 whiskey shakes  for ten whole days
 stay off the streets  at night for weeks
 i don't wanna  be your catholic pagan  now that you're  here
we're counting  on each  other for love,  survival,  and everything  else
 please don't padlock your parent's bomb shelter
 or fill her up with dust and ash
 a landfill mecca for burnouts
 and listless adolescent sour mash
 i'm not saying that i've earned love
 but i could really use it now
 so turn out the lights over and over and over
 we'll figure out the rest somehow
 i don't wanna be your russian bride not anymore
 barack hussein obama would have a field day if he knew at all
soooooo we  have  to go
 have to  go
