Another day watching the clock Preach to the flock, stockpiled guns and tv dinners And I thought I'd call you up It's been a bit I almost got my wish It really wasn't quite like this I should have been specific Next time, I'll be specific Say, "I wanna know When you can bring it home to me I'm begging you, baby, please" You want to know If you can count on me Honey, I wish I knew how to leave There but for the grace of God goes every girl I've ever loved Dancing in the summer sun, all Saint John's wort and opium But I try not to judge, between canned goods and water jugs Security's a commodity that we're all buying up I want to know When you can bring it home to me I'm begging you, baby, please You want to know if you can Up and count on me Honey, I wish I knew how to leave The desert is a nice escape The desert is a nice escape You want to know if you can always count on me I wish I knew how to leave
