Bring a New Fight

Bring a new fight, Lucky and wanting, Keep up with those Joneses, And wheel the white flag. The figures are you waiting for the next day Can you, will you? Bring the New fight With no money to buy Or crack to sell? Are you the strength Or the killer That can pay the ticket Or fill the pint With love or juicy resistance Enough to beg a lover, To lick a finger or glove? Graceless and fickle, Bring a new fight, In the shadow, Where it can't be figured, Until you've undressed the best.
