Four o'clock in the afternoon, c
and cis
I didn't feel like very much.c
h
I said to my self, "where are you, golden boy, where'sc
yocis
ur famous golden touch?c
" h
I thought you knew where all of tc
he cis
elephants lie down,c
h
I thought you where the crown-prince of all tc
he cis
wheels in Ivory Town.c
h
Just take a look at your body now,b
a
there's nothing much to save.b
h
And a bitter voice in the mirror cries "b
Hey, a
Prince, you need a shave."b
h
Now if you can manage to get your tremblic
ng cis
fingers to behave,c
h
Why don't you try unwrapping a stainlessc
stcis
eel razor blade? That's right,c
h
it's come to this.b
Yes,a
it's come to this,Refren

Once there was a patc
h ancis
d a girl with chestnut hair,c
h
And you passed the summers picking allc
of cis
the berries that grew there.c
h
There were times she was a womanc
, ohcis
, there were times she was just a child,c
h
And you held her in the shadow whc
ere cis
the raspberries grow wild.c
h
And you climbed twilight mountains, b
and a
you sang about the view,b
h
And everywhere that you wandered, lob
ve sa
eemed to go along with you.b
h
That's a hard one to remember, yes,c
it cis
makes you clench your fist,c
h
And then the veins stand out like higc
hwaycis
s all along your wrist. And yesc
, h
it's come to this.b
Yeah,a
it's come to this,Refren

On the back of every magazine, there arec
thocis

Why don't you join the Rosicruciansc
? Thcis
ey will give you back your hope,c
h
You can find your love with diagrams on c
a plcis
ain brown envelope.c
h
But you've used up all your couponb
s, ea
xcept the one that seems b
h
To be written on your wristb
aloa
ng with several thousand dreams.b
h
Now Santa Claus comes forwardc
, thcis
at's a razor in his mittc

And he puts on his dark glassesc
, ancis
d he shows you where to hit.c
