When you come around

No more pain and no regrets

Watch the sun go brown

Smoking cobalt cigarettes

There's no need to hide

Taking things the easy way

If I stay inside

I might live till Saturday

No marigolds in the promised land

There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow

Any man left of the Rio Grande

Is the king of the world

King of the world as far as I know
