Your silver child
Suspended in space
Crying out to you
Beckons you
To yet another fine place
Where the trials of life are few
Who says your comin’ on
Don’t think your livin’ wrong
They won’t remember you
The rent is always due
The cloudy men
Who take their place
And stand in line they do
Know not of
The satin face
That separates them from you
Just put your bluejeans on
Grab your guitar and write a song
Don’t think I’m kidding you
The rent is always due
She rides a broom
With gold-plated straw
And flutters around and dies
The Brylcreem fools
Just stand in awe
Digesting all her lies
But then you walk along
And she starts comin' on
Beneath her melting broom
The rent is always due
