I woke up in Montecito
I was thinking about my life
And the questions made more questions
Staring out into the night

Yes Ive worn the golden g-string
Put my hand into hellfire
I did it all to make you love me
And to feel alive

Oh thats just the world that were living in
The old boys hold all the cards and they aint playing Gin
You dare to call me crazy have you looked around this place?

I should walk away
Oh I should walk away
But I think Ill stay

There are layers to this body
Primal sex and primal shame
They told me I should cover it
So I went the other way

I was trying to own my power
Still Im trying to work it out
And at least it gives the papers
Something they can write about

And oh thats just the world that were living in
The old boys hold all the cards and they aint playing gin

And you dare to call me crazy have you looked around this place?

I should walk away
Oh I should walk away
But I think Ill stay

So the mad mans in the big chair
And his hearts an iron vault
He says If you cant make ends meet honey
It must be your fault

We all focus on the winners
And get blinded by their shine
Maybe caring for each others
Just too 1969

But oh thats just the world that were living in
The old boys hold all the cards and they aint playing gin
And you dare to call me crazy have you looked around this place?

I should walk away
Oh I should walk away
But I think Ill stay

Yeah I think Ill stay
I just cant walk away

So I think Ill stay
I cant walk away
