I went to a cobbler
To fix a hole in my shoe
He took one look at my face
And said, "I can fix that hole in you"

I beg your pardon
I'm not looking for a cure
Seen enough of my friends

It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world

It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world

It’s a bad man's world

Was I born as a promise to keep the peace
Or meet the shame
Before you split, one thing left
To give me ordinary name
Give me my ordinary name
Now that I’m still standing,

I have got so much to give, I swear I do.
I may not have nine lives, this one feels brand new.
Yes I've lived a good one.
I have tried to be true.
There are some things I've never realised, till I met you.
How the wind feels on my cheeks, when I'm barking at the moon.

[chorus]

I feel in love with a beautiful boy on the black sand
He took me away, I was never the same on the black sand
He said, "Who's going to love you buried underground?"
Oh, on the black sand
A mother unwed with a scar down her chest on the black sand
She met her mate on the old army base back in Thailand
Who's going to love him, when all that?s lost is found?
Oh, on the black sand

They come to town when the war is over
Dirty boots in the middle of the night
Trolling the bars, hitting on the soldiers
Boys give it up without a fight
They say, ?Hey, boy, how about your place?
I know you really want to take me home?
Drop the bags off on the bedroom floor
They make love with the lights on, saying

I could've died that night
Way back in june
Saw my soul hang heavy above the room
Slackjawed I confessed, bit by my hubris
I was spooked out obsessed by the moon

I was completely not me
But baby I'm coming clean

No good, no how, no man should treat you like he do
So come on right now, it's time for you to get up and out of his house
I've known you too long to let you carry on this way
When I was in bad shape I'll never forget what you always used to say

What are we going to do with you?
You don't make it easy on me
What am I supposed to do with you

It wasn't me, I wasn't there
I was just watching from over here
And besides, I couldn't afford the bus fare
In Hollywood and Washington
They shake and smile through the harm they've done
But it's your little red wagon
And you've got to pull it
It'll take a lifetime to clear your name

All our friends, they're gettin' on
But the girls are still staying young
If I get caught being rude in a conversation
With a child bride on a summer vacation

No matter how hard I try to be just one of the guys
There's a little something inside that won't let me
No matter how hard I try to have an open mind

Pretty bird, pretty bird
Why you so still?
Pretty bird, pretty bird
We've been waiting on you

[Chorus]
You go west for the black setting sun
You go south to the white spirit of earth

I was of poor folk
But my mother had a rabbit fur coat
And a girl of less character pushed her down the L.A. River
Hand over that rabbit fur coat

She put a knife to her throat
Hand over that rabbit fur coat
When my ma refused, the girl kicked dirt on her blouse

Our love is sweeter than strings
Our love is thicker than angel wings

But still sometimes I can't believe you're real
It's just that I've got diamonds in my eyes for you

Our love is simple
Our love is crystal

It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world
It's a bad man's world..
Was I born as a promise to keep the peace
Or meet the shame
Before you split, one thing left
To give me my ordinary name
Give me my ordinary name
