Annie, I things line up for you All in a row, and new You keep on living in one small room When you let anyone in You let anyone in
And Annie, you think the whole been cruel All the stars advantage of you Your mother was cold and daddy'd no love So you your feet till they noticed You stomped feet till they put on the kid gloves
Now they're walking on eggshells, they're walking on hallelujah each time that you pass And someday you'll pick up off your ass and go
And Annie you think the boys played fair Tripping you up, sticking gum in hair Wherever you run, it's yourself you there And he be gone when you need him And he might be long gone you find you care
'Cause he's walking on eggshells, he's on glass He sings you a lullaby each you ask And someday you'll yourself up off your ass and go
And Annie, I love you, that's been clear It's the layers of history that let us hear The twisted compassion that's burning our The from there to here The distance there to here
'Cause I'm on eggshells, I'm walking on glass We sing you a each time you ask And someday you'll yourself up off your ass and go
'Cause gambling again and the stakes are too high Your ante is and my bet is desire Took you far from the and into the fire again
And Annie, I things line up for you All in a row, and new You can't keep on living in one room you never let anyone in You let anyone in, you never let anyone in You never let in
