"Roberta" lyrics
"Roberta"
Roberta, you say you know me
But I see only what you're paid to show me
Oh, I wish you had the time
Oh, I wish you had the time
Oh, Roberta, I understand you
I know you need to move in other circles too
It's tough for me, it's tough for you
Roberta, how I've adored you
I'd ask you over but I can't afford you
Oh, I wish you'd take the time
Oh, I wish you'd take the time
Oh, Roberta, the night goes slowly
I know you're working but you must get lonely too
It's tough for me, ah, it's tough for you
And I'm in a bad way and wanna make love to you
Oh, I wish you had the time
Oh, I wish you had the time
Oh, Roberta, I really need you
But I suppose that my small change won't see you through
It's tough for me, ah, it's tough for you

How you could be anything but beautiful

The Guess Who - "Share The Land" Have you been around?
Have you done your share of comin' down
On different things that people do?
Have you been aware?
You got brothers and sisters who care
About what's gonna happen to you

Bruce Springsteen - "Born To Run" In the day, we sweat it out on the streets
Of a runaway American dream
At night, we ride through mansions of glory
In suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on Highway 9
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected...
