After all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay
And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
And the puzzle will last until somebody will say
And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
But the people are living far away from the place
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
In the morning you come to the ladies salon
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
Read the letter you got from the memory girl
Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill
Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
Yeah, it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
