Canceled Check (Live) [03/31/03 Liquid Room, Tokyo, Japan] Songtext
von Beck

I hate to do this
But you′re a pain in the neck
I thought you knew this
You're handing me a canceled check

You′re so helpless
Your girlfriends think you're a saint
I'll give you a quarter
I′ll keep my judgements to myself

And I get caught up in the moonlight
Reaching out for a rotten egg
I don′t want to beg
It's crystal clear your time is nearly gone


Count your blessings
And do the things that you should
O the has-beens
Never had it so good

Stormy weather
The kids are making a racket
In the wilderness
The wild lives are so mild

And I get caught up in the moonlight
Reaching out for a rotten egg
I don′t want to beg
It's crystal clear your time is nearly gone

And I get caught up in the moonlight
Reaching out for a rotten egg
I don′t want to beg
It's crystal clear your time is nearly gone
