I can see the future babe
In that city of steel and stone
I can see the future babe
I ain't getting around that toll
When I dance around the lawman
I don't always get back home
I can see the future babe
White lines and fire alarms
I can see the future babe
Hardly living, living hard
You know I'd love to blow your smoke around
But I'm playing my only card
I'm busted up and broken down
Busted up, broken down
Spinning round and round and round
Busted up, broken down
And if I were only lonely babe
I'd be on my way down
I can see the future babe
Stained glass and marble stone
I can see the future babe
A suit and tie, a second phone
Man, this easy living's hard enough
Why'd I go and sell my soul
I'm busted up, I'm broken down
Busted up, broken down
Spinning round and round and round
Busted up, broken down
And if I were only lonely babe
I'd be on my way downtown
I'm busted up, and I'm broken down
I'm busted up, broken down
Spinning round and round and round
Busted up, broken down
If I were only lonely babe
And if I were only lonely babe
Said if I were only lonely babe
I'd be on my way down
