Texas Moon — текст песни (Church, The)

One more day I may forget my reason
Some would say we bathed like a harpoon
Followed politely south it feels like treason
Live out my days beneath the Texas moon
Started out a cardshark in Palm City
Playing for another tablespoon
Lost my fancy vest and both my kidneys
Two red jacks and one red Texas moon
I met a bunch of fools in Oklahoma
Their leader was a loathsome old baboon
He had those rascals hooked on homemade soma
Hooked on that yeah and the Texas moon
He knew a house that opened up in Dallas
I`ll stick it in her darkened sweetened room
She said I pray you can`t accept that fallacy
But lie down here and feel the Texas moon
Crying is no substitute for laughter
I would have felt but now I`m feeling used
I`m hell bent for the here and everafter
Cold white fire like the Texas moon
And I expect to find life there unpleasant
My exit will be most inopportune
I`m leaving while I can see this crescent
The crescent of the ghostly Texas moon
It can`t be any hotter than this jail
It can`t be any colder than this mood
It can`t be any deader than a doornail
Or half as live as the Texas moon
Mother send no flowers for my passing
Surely life is just one long lampoon
Brother end your vigilance and your fasting
I`m going down beneath the Texas moon
