THE TURNAROUND

another morning in the evening
tie and spoon on the floor
and i don't even know her name
or if she lives here
had enough but i want more
i don't remember how i got here
and how long it's been now
a day or two maybe more

home to home i spent the days
never wanted anywhere
i always bit the hand that beat me
and they wrote me off
was easy not to care
never trusted anyone
don't see why i should now
fate's unblinking
never fair

you're all gonna be sorry
when i leave town
and get it together
for the turnaround
six bucks in my pocket
and the shoes on my feet
the first step is out the door
and onto the street
