Yeah we made it We were lovers on the run Making headlines We were diamonds in the sun We were diamonds in the sun Clyde, here they come, Clyde, they’ve got guns Clyde, here they come, Clyde, they’ve got guns See the willows And the birds that fly so high Hope you had fun This is the end of the ride But we’ll never really die Couldn’t kill us if they tried to, they’ll never ever forget our names Our love is hotter than a bright ivory flame No way that they could ever forget our names Our love is hotter than a bright ivory flame Hope you had fun This is the end of the ride This is the end of the ride Clyde, here they come, Clyde, they’ve got guns (our love is hotter than an atomic bomb) Clyde, here they come, Clyde, they’ve got guns (our love is hotter than an atomic bomb) Clyde, here they come, Clyde, they’ve got guns (our love is hotter than an atomic bomb) Clyde, here they come...

I told you off and you said to go home I kindly obliged and I turned off my phone I left and I rambled to places unknown Now you got what you wanted you’re an asshole alone I met an old man who was turning to stone He walked and he grumbled and he let out a groan I swear that I knew him, he must’ve been cloned He was just like my girl, she’s an asshole alone I kept on my way, I continued to roam I stopped at a cafe and picked up a scone The girl at the counter asked if I’d been disowned I said that I had by an asshole alone It started to rain, I was chilled to the bone I heard the faint cry of an old saxophone I wondered if it was a call to atone Then I thought, “Let it go, she’s an asshole alone” So I sat on a rock and it felt like a throne And right there beside me was a pair of headphones I put them on and went into the zone Life’s even better without an asshole alone Life’s even better without an asshole alone I said, life’s even better without an asshole alone

Angeline 03:26
Angeline, you’ll make it through Angeline, you’ll make it through, you know it’s true I see you pulling on your black balloon Remember this will all be over soon I will lie with you in bed Hold you close and press my lips to your forehead Picture us on some deserted beach Far beyond the world and out of reach And if it gets too hard Don’t despair Just put your hand in mine And leave it there I’ll crawl the earth for you I’ll wrestle bears You know I will because I care Angeline, you’ll make it through Angeline, you’ll make it through, you know it’s true The day is almost done and you’re alright I know you won’t give up without a fight I know you won’t give up without a fight You know you can’t give up

Driving through the countryside, watching all the cars as they go by, they move so fast I’m content behind the wheel, I’ve got my dog and I’ve got my Lucille with me at last The sun is going down over the hills and I feel fine I can’t think of any better way to spend my time As I pass a little creek, I look at my Lucille and she’s asleep, she looks serene Birds are flying up above, I think about the two of us in love, it’s like a dream The sun is going down over the hills and I feel fine I can’t think of any better way to spend my time She always finds her way to me She always finds her way to me She always finds her way to me She always finds her way to me The radio is playing low, there’s a static hiss that comes and goes, but I don’t mind The road ahead is wild and free, and now I’ve got Lucille here with me, I’m realigned The sun is going down over the hills and I feel fine I can’t think of any better way to spend my time She always finds her way to me She always finds her way to me My Lucille and me My Lucille and me My Lucille and me My Lucille and me

Sugar Queen 03:54
Look at my baby in red leather shoes Diamonds on her wrist but she’s got the blues I don’t have anything else I can give I took her with me to the palace of sin Living ain’t easy, girl when I’m with you She’s a sugar queen, a real dynamo She has a good time with her nose in the snow I told her she’s pretty and gave her a kiss I thought I struck gold but found out I missed Living ain’t easy, girl when I’m with you I do what I can and hope for the best I try to be good and forget all the rest She was never easily satisfied I went to the palace and left her inside Living ain’t easy, girl when I’m with… Living ain’t easy, girl when I’m with… Living ain’t easy, girl when I’m with you
