How Could I?

You broke another nail
that's too bad for the soul
what to do besides go read
a magazine and smoke

How could I ask for more?

Everything's the same
I woke up on the floor
Yesterday I got a job
down at the liquor store

How could I ask for more?

But you want more
so here you go
another page
for your notebook
Force a smile
yeah life is good

How could I?

Once I stood too tall
I twice fell to the floor
Three or four times
I just could not answer at the door

How could I ask for more?

Go buy yourself some clothes
now you don't feel lost
the hangers in your closet
all feel better for the loss
