Last night I was cool at the pool hall
Held the table for eleven games
Nothing was easier than the first seven
I beat a woman with varicose veins
She stopped to see herself in the mirror
Fix her hair and hide her veins
And she lost the game
Next day I went to the dentist
He pulled some teeth and I lost some blood
We'd like to thank you for the cards you sent us
My wives and I were all choked up
I recall how Caesar and Cleo
Made love in the Milky Way
They needed boats and armies to get there
I know there's a better way
I saw the movie and I read the book
But when it happened to me
I sure was glad I had what it took
To get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away, get away
Got to get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get out of here
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
I gotta get away
I'm making another delivery
Of chemicals and sacred roots
I'll hold what you have to give me
But I'll use what I have to use
The lasers are in the lab
The old man is dressed in white clothes
Everybody says he's mad
No one knows the things that he knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
I'm sleepin' in every hallway
I just can't accept the stares
I'm using too many covers
I'm warm now so I don't care
I'm thinkin' of no one in my mind
Sedan delivery is a job I know I'll keep
It sure was hard to find
Hard to find
Hard to find a job
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find, Hard to find
Hard to find
Whoa

My wives and I were all choked up
The full moon is on my shoulder
I'm feelin' a better way
There's no one to say goodbye to
There no one to make me stay
Funny how time can change your crazed eyes
Into something more
Funny how love slips away
I recall how Caesar and Cleo
Made love in the Milky Way
They needed boats and armies to get there
I know there's another way

Hard to find
Hard to find
Hard to find
My sedan
