Winning

Moon like a silver medallion swinging Riding on a snow white stallion singing Of everything I’ve ever done or seen Everything I’ve ever done or seen Room like an old black 45 spinning Ain’t it good to know you’re alive and winning Even if you’re basically alone Even if you find yourself alone Just walking around with a white moustache In a friend of a friend’s house Hardly a hint of the aftermath Don’t ever wipe that smile off your mouth Fell in love with it in summer Feeling like the night was day Fools are staying for the winter Trying to keep the wolves at bay Suger-coated shell with the heartbreak filling Buying what we sell we can all make a killing Money never knows where it’s been Money never knows it’s history Room like a star-spangled galaxy spinning Ain’t it good to know you’re alive and willing Even if you’re basically a clone Even if you find that you’re a clone Just walking around with a white moustache In a friend of a friend’s house Hardly a hint of the aftermath Don’t ever wipe that smile off your mouth Fell in love with it in summer Feeling like the night was day Fools are staying for the winter Trying to keep the wolves at bay
