”Laying on the sunny beach
Cool drinks, sandwich, coffee and milk
The radio plays its easy beats
Good kids the calling cards eat chips
Your creation is a crime
Against the one who’s hands are tied
You’re creative with your crimes
Do you know what’s left behind
I went downtown on that dreadful night
I thought it was ok in my drunken mind
I remember well all in detail
You promised one thing and other thing happened
Your creation is a crime
Against the one who’s hands are tied
You’re creative with your crimes
Do you know what’s left behind
It’s not a about mannish pride
I’ve read my Judith, I’ve read my Gertrude Stein
Million people wait all their lives
Why don’t you save it for the one alike”
