an obsequious is on the stage
she said the reason is your age
well i,me,mine we all kiss the stars
a lonely dance upon the bars

i cry,oh i try
day by day i cry
day by day i try
day by day i cry

my joy is so so far away
this candle won't melt i can say
a kiss would do to make me good
all blondes are gathered to eat my root

i cry,oh i try
day by day i cry
day by day i try
day by day i cry

an obsequious is on the stage
she said the reason is your age
well i,me,mine we all kiss the stars
a lonely dance upon the bars

my joy is so so far away
this candle won't melt i can say
a fuckin' kiss would do to make me good
all blondes are gathered to eat my root

i cry,oh i try
day by day i cry
day by day i try
day by day i cry

i miss my joy, i miss my joy
