Althea
Lyrics:
I told Althea I was feeling lost
Lacking in some direction
Althea
told me upon scrutiny
My back might need protection
I told
Althea that treachery
Was tearing me limb from limb
Althea told
me, "Now cool down, boy.
Settle back. Easy, Jim."
You may be
Saturday's child all-grown
Moving with a tinge of grace
You may be
a clown in the burying ground
Or just another pretty face
You
may be the fate of Ophelia
Sleeping and perchance to dream -
Honest to the point of recklessness
Self-centered to the extreme
Ain't nobody messin' with you but you
Your friends are getting
most concerned
Loose with the truth, baby, it's your fire
But,
baby... don't get burned
When the smoke has cleared, she said—
That's what she said to me:
You're gonna want a bed to lay your head
And a little sympathy
There are things you can replace
And
others you cannot
The time has come to weigh those things
This
space is getting hot
You know this space is getting hot
I
told Althea, I'm a roving sign
And I was born to be a bachelor
Althea told me, "OK. That's fine."
So now I'm out trying to catch her
Can't talk to you without talking to me
We're guilty of the same
old thing
Thinking a lot about less and less
And forgetting the
love we bring

Only used as a tease.
