lyrics

if i drive down this road
i'll get to pleasant valley reservoir
it sounds a lush, rested place
but in truth it's a sewage plant
a roiling pit of shit of man
maybe it's time i turn back?
maybe it's time i turn back.

when i kissed you goodbye
it took everything not to cry
knowing full well it could be the last time
but neither of us like a lady
who won't hold her body proud
and one of us really likes clean goodbyes
and one of us only likes clearcut goodbyes

so i'll go down to the city
i'll make all my social calls
a divorcé smiling for the camera
poised and proud

if you don't know by now
if you want me around
then you will never
no you will never
so you’ve gotta tell me now
if i’m gonna lose you now
or may i never
may i never

but if i keep driving down this road
out past pleasant valley reservoir
maybe i'll find that lush, rested place
and i will lay my body down
on the green green grass
am i lost it's where i choose to be?
am i lost if i'm where i choose to be?
