TAKE IT OR LEAVE, CHAP. 154

Ain’t it a drag that even at midnight in the city
Life never seems to be that near?
And I can’t believe this room would be
Any more silent if neither of us was here
And maybe I could close my eyes
And be in some other place
If you weren’t expecting so much
You can’t even see your own face
In the mirror –

But if you need it, I got it
You can have it if you want it
Just take it, and stop it
Take it on home, and leave me alone

The groundhog man he came on by this afternoon
I said you were not home
And he wanted so badly just to be hurt
With a pain that was his and his alone
He bowed his head and he looked so sad
And then he began to groan
He hung his heart up on a hat rack,
Left a bucket of his blood by the telephone

But if you need it, I got it
You can have it if you want it
Just take it, just stop it
Take it on home and leave me alone

You come to me in the springtime
With your hair cut short and your black sunglasses on
You say you’re livin’ on your knees
But it’s alright, you can get up anytime you want
But there’s somethin’ in the way you say it
That makes me think you’re wrong
There’s somethin’ in the way you say it
That makes me wish I’d never been born

But if you need it, I got it
You can have it if you want it
Just take it, and stop it
Take it on home and leave me alone
