[00:00:28] Now that you're back in town

[00:00:30] You look around at everything

[00:00:34] Well it could be anywhere on earth

[00:00:41] Tryin' to count your change

[00:00:44] Inside the Asian store

[00:00:47] But you can't figure what it's worth

[00:00:53] And she stands there like a specter

[00:00:56] On the corner of the street

[00:00:59] And you know you can't expect her

[00:01:02] To be subtle or discreet no no no and

[00:01:09] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:01:12] Scratch the surface off a future

[00:01:16] That just left you in the past

[00:01:22] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:01:25] Pick the threads out of a suture

[00:01:29] That was holdin' your life fast

[00:01:35] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:01:42] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:01:48] She's got the bulldog tamed

[00:01:51] Docile and subservient

[00:01:54] And now it doesn't make a fuss

[00:02:01] She runs with these sparky kids

[00:02:04] Who talk into their mobile phones

[00:02:07] Well there must be so much to discuss

[00:02:13] And you remember where you came from

[00:02:16] But you don't know where it's gone

[00:02:19] And you cannot find a name on

[00:02:23] The street where you came from no no no and

[00:02:29] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:02:32] Show a wanton skill on the game tables

[00:02:36] The pinball and the pool

[00:02:42] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:02:45] Scratch the surface off an England

[00:02:49] That has made her hard and cruel

[00:02:55] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:03:27] And you remember where you came from

[00:03:30] But you don't recognize don't recognize it now

[00:03:34] And you can't expect her mercy

[00:03:37] Well that much she won't allow no no no and

[00:03:43] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:03:47] Scratch the surface off a future

[00:03:50] That just left you left you in the past

[00:03:56] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:04:00] Pick the threads out of a suture

[00:04:03] That was holdin' your life fast

[00:04:09] Her cheap chipped black nails

[00:04:16] Her cheap chipped black nails
