on the roof

Blank-faced,
Was this what our elders taught?
Dim the lights and live like story book.
I cant focus for the pinball.
Im all shook up and
I think I see it all.
But I know that it aint that simple.
I got loose.
Up on the roof.
Waiting for you.
Two-faced,
Was this was out elders taught?
Were human too, indulge in small talk.
I take a walk down the alley.
Some drunk half-kills me.
Were fighting on the floor for a hapenny
I got loose.
Up on the roof.
Waiting for you.
Well, I guess
Im waiting for the punchline.
Im a refugee with a rare find.
Ive got a place where
I can unwind.
I got loose.
Up on the roof.
Waiting for you.
Well hide
