Alone in my cave It's corn flakes and camels And the long restless shadows of my life None but the brave Jim beam and jack daniels Channelhopping these empty days and nights Glued to the screen Rerun by rerun At the dark outer limits of my soul Stranded between The green acres of my good intentions And the twilight zone of zero self-control

Girlfriend if it can't be you I don't even have anyone to tell my story to I said girlfriend if it can't be you Girlfriend if it can't be you I don't even have anyone to tell my story to I said girlfriend if it can't be you

So I'm visualizing a cute little bunny With a fluffy white tail and long grey floppy ears Who looks up at me and says, doc don't you worry All you got to do is, hide in here Now all you got to do is to just say when You might consider bringing your sweetness 'round here again
Girlfriend if it can't be you I don't even have anyone to tell my story to I said girlfriend if it can't be you Girlfriend if it can't be you I don't even have anyone to tell my story to I said girlfriend if it can't be you
