One subway ride and a clearing-out of my bank account
I'll leave all of this and forget what all of the fuss was about
But I won't go losing my head
'Cause I'm not sure I'd be better off dead
I'll have a bourbon instead
Take the third one in bed
Goodbye cruel girl
Just one step in a locomotive's volition
Did wonders for my uncle's bitter disposition
And the best-intentioned medicine
Could not have prevented that accident
I'll be inside
Goodbye cruel girl
I'm in the dark and out of the know
I'm all messed up and no place to go
I'm in the dark and out of the know
I'm all messed up and no place to go
I'm in the dark and out of the know
I'm all messed up and no place to go but up
So I won't be leaving the planet
Thought I swear sometimes I can't stand it
Except when I can
So for now that's my plan
Goodbye cruel girl
I may still be absurd
At least I'm still in this world
Goodbye cruel girl
Goodbye cruel girl
Goodbye cruel girl
Goodbye cruel girl
Goodbye cruel girl
