lyrics

it all went down on a Thursday night
with the sun still hiding and the moon still high
two left feet on a cobbled street
ain't no way to catch her eye

snow on the street in July
and a warm cup of coffee
you used to live such a simple life
but now it's getting sloppy
a jazz band takes the stand
and slides into a trance
the jazz singer acapella
asks John Coltrane to dance

everyone's a dj now
with a whole lotta nothing and an empty sound
no acetate, just telephones
and a whole lotta people-no where to go
everyone's an artist too
with a whole lotta time and nothin to do
every is an artist too
with a whole lotta time and nothin to do

chorus:
need no more of your inventions
don't hang me with your evil intentions

she said she's a tricky fish
you know she don't swim in the mainstream
a bit more of a delta girl
you know she gets down in a daydream
tambourines, no t.v. screens
a leather jacket and faded jeans
moments with nothing to say
except, "we're passing you by today"

chorus:
need no more of your inventions
don't hang me with your evil intentions
