How far must I go for love?
How much of myself must I erase
before I am worthy of staying?

Yet the phrase “dinner is ready!”

I feel as if I’m inadequate,
No job and no money, worthless…

is skinnier than Johnny the hot-dog vender,
they chat and smoke grass
on their coffee break mindless of lonely Cher!

at the Happy Bar...

On this trip of life I'm taking
But I wouldn't have it  any other way
In this joyful life I'm living

Where should I go for dinner tonight??
Why am I so distracted today?

All the lies
   And hiding good 
Keeps me skinny
   Sets the mood
One day I'll be perfect in his eys
