Lucy September

lucy september's put a hole in her arm

she wonders where all daddy's money's gone

lying on the bed with a wasted friend

oh yeah she could have been someone

with all the advantages under the sun

but sad to say this is where her story ends &

you stare out into space

fall down out of the race

lucy all bound up in etiquette

I remember when we first met

there you stood in your father's clothes

with eyes you could drown in like the marie rose

that looked at me just like my wedding day

if we hadn't been so close

maybe I could forget

though you used it all up

I'm still in debt

and you've found someone else to pay

and you stare out into space

fall down out of the race

lucy, lucy september

where will you go now

summer's over for another year

and the bells start to fade

where will you go now

where will you go now

summer's over for another year

and it won't dry away your tears

september

and you stare out into space

better off out of the race

lucy, lucy september
