Below The Cherry Moon

Like you were eating sleeping pills
You don't know what you've got until
It's gone and you're willin' to kill
Tomorrow and today

Now you could cut a worm in two
Who never really bothered you
And find below the cherry moon
The price that I had paid

The majors, the billboards, the science of sleep
The workers with clocks and trainees
You'll find below a cherry moon

The show cats and midgets who fall to their knees
With pagers and big smokin' trees
You find below a cherry moon

Without a rhythm or a song
And nothin' real to lean upon
The ones who never did belong
Will wind up in the hay

The ones who really did you in
Were bound to give you up to win
The war designed for sickening
That blew us all away

The ones who really did you in
Were bound to give you up to win
The war designed for sickening
That blew us all away

The meat pack district, the drums and the beat
The red lights that make us believe
You'll find below a cherry moon

The hood rat merits with all certainty
We'll end up as beggars and thieves
You'll find below a cherry moon

Without a rhythm or a song
And nothin' real to lean upon
The ones who never did belong
Will wind up in the hay

The ones who really did you in
Were bound to give you up to win
The war designed for sickening
That blew us all away

Without a rhythm or a song
And nothin' real to lean upon
The ones who never did belong
Will wind up in the hay
